Brebeuf Man Returns!
A fan-favorite tradition returned to campus during our first All-School Meeting of the year! First created in the early 2000s by Joel Bumol ’02 with just a towel, some masking tape, and a spirit dream, the cape has officially been passed down to Kingston Neely ’27. The crowd went wild and the gym rafters shook as the crowd cheered on 2026-27’s Brebeuf Man—bringing incredible energy and school spirit to kick off the new school year!

Your Legacy. Their Future.
What is your Brebeuf story?
Perhaps it was a teacher who challenged you to think differently, a teammate who became a lifelong friend, a Kairos retreat that changed your perspective, or a moment when you first discovered your God-given gifts. Whatever your story, the lessons learned at Brebeuf have a way of staying with us long after graduation. Today, you have the opportunity to help write the next chapter of that story.
A legacy gift is a meaningful way to ensure that future generations of Braves experience the same transformative Jesuit education that shaped your life. Whether through a bequest, beneficiary or life insurance designation, IRA distribution, or another planned gift, your generosity will help sustain Brebeuf's mission for years to come.
The O'Brien Society, named in honor of Fr. J. Paul O'Brien, S.J., recognizes all - alumni, parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, and friends - who have included Brebeuf Jesuit in their long-term charitable plans. Leave a legacy that will inspire future generations of Braves.
If you have already included Brebeuf Jesuit in your estate plans, thank you! We would be honored to recognize your generosity as a member of the O'Brien Society (or anonymously, if you prefer).
Join Us at Upcoming O’Brien Society Events
