Spotlight: The Kakkar Family
Sonia and Jatin Kakkar believe in St. Mark's values of being mission-driven, postponing gratification and focusing on character and leadership education.
“More boys need to be exposed to these values, and we think that St. Mark’s has a critical role to play in this regard,” Jatin said.
With two sons in Upper School, Amar ’25 and Rohan ’26, the Kakkars started reflecting on how they could support the School’s mission long after their sons’ graduations.

“Legacy gifts show our confidence that St. Mark’s will be around for a long time, and we want to play our role in ensuring the School continues to thrive,” Jatin said. “This is also a signal to our boys to start thinking about their lifetime involvement with the School and what they can do to support it.”
In recognition of St. Mark’s impact on their family, the Kakkar family decided to join the Menter B. Terrill Society — the School’s society for legacy giving — to honor St. Mark’s in their long-term estate planning.
“As parents, we have benefited from our partnership with the School, and undoubtedly, our sons will continue to benefit,” Jatin said. “Legacy support is an effective way to ensure the School’s longevity and improve access for the next generation.”
