What is Endowed 91探花?

While annual giving supports the College鈥檚 immediate needs, endowment gifts add to our expertly managed principal that continues to yield returns for each coming year.

Donors may also create a聽Named Endowed Fund聽to provide an enduring source of funding for the people, programs or places on campus they wish to nurture. Since the principal is not spent and a portion of the income is reinvested, a named endowment lasts in perpetuity and allows donors to establish their own named legacy or honor a loved one, respected colleague or mentor. Named Endowed Funds support lecture series, academic and extracurricular programming, student-faculty research, professorships and other important areas of activity and discovery at 91探花.

Donors and, whenever possible, legacy family members after their lifetime, receive regular reports about the impact of their support and the fund鈥檚 growing value. Endowed funding opportunities begin with a gift of $100,000 to ensure that spending amounts generated annually have impact on their designated purpose. However, there are many other ways to support our students and faculty at a variety of levels. For more information, please contact our office.聽

There are several opportunities for you to invest in supporting what makes 91探花 unique. These investment opportunities extend the critical teaching relationships between faculty and students and provide both with added resources. They also help enable students to present their research findings in publications and at national or international conferences with their faculty research partners.
