Peggy Reed: A New Generation of Giving

Margaret “Peggy” Reed.

Peggy Reed was only a little girl when President John F. Kennedy was sworn in as our nation’s 35th President, but the power of his legacy has always been a source of inspiration for her.  She is committed to ensuring that future generations have access to his vision and has made a generous provision for the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation in her will.

Owner of Canine Training and Behavior Services, a nationally acclaimed canine training firm, Reed has worked with top name celebrities in film, television, and theater.

As an award-winning animal training professional, her business takes her around the world working with some of Hollywood’s most prestigious production houses.  However, her jet-set lifestyle doesn’t keep her away from the Kennedy Library programs and special events.  Since her first May Dinner, nearly ten years ago, Reed has been a faithful friend and generous supporter.   

In addition to her involvement with the Kennedy Library Foundation as a member of the President’s Council, Reed serves her community as an active member of the Kiwanis Club of Wilton, Connecticut and as a member of the Board of Directors of the Wilton Family YMCA.

“I have always been deeply moved by the life and contributions of President Kennedy. His timeless message of the importance of service to fellow man reaches across generations and is a beacon of hope. I am proud to help preserve his legacy,” reflects Reed on naming the Kennedy Library Foundation in her bequest plans.
