Give the Gift of a Jesuit Education

Dr. Patrick Maher

Regis University gave Dr. Patrick Maher, RC '77, the necessary skills to launch a successful career in general surgery and taught him how to look beyond personal achievement to focus on helping others succeed. During his time on campus, he worked as an emergency aid assistant under a Denver-area doctor and was an assistant teacher for two courses. His undergraduate experience was so powerful that it inspired him to support Regis on multiple levels. In addition to giving annually at the President's Council level, Dr. Maher and his wife, Laurie, have included Regis in their estate plans through their will. By doing so, Dr. Maher has created a legacy, serving as the support structure for new generations of students at Regis. "It is not the length of our lives that endure but the gifts we give to the world."
