Former Fidelity president donates land to NH schoolDecember 17, 2008 11:26 AM

James C. Curvey, a former president of Fidelity Investments, and his family have donated more than 11 acres of lakefront property in Wolfboro, N.H., to Brewster Academy to provide scholarships to students in the Alton/Wolfeboro area.

The property is valued at $6.3 million and represents the largest single donation in the history of the school, which is also in Wolfboro, Brewster Academy said in a press release that was sent out by the press office of Fidelity, the Boston mutual funds giant.

Scholarships will go to three local students per year for their four years at Brewster, starting in the fall term of 2009, the press release said.

Brewster Academy was founded in 1887 in Wolfeboro by John Brewster with a donation of 42 acres of land, including one-half mile of frontage on Lake Winnipesaukee, and the Curvey family's donation will expand the academy’s lakefront resources, the press release said.

In a statement included in the Brewster press release, Curvey noted that he and his family have been Wolfboro summer residents for the past 20 years.
