Endowed Gifts

Endowments are permanent, self-sustaining funds that create lasting opportunities for generations to come. 

Endowments may fund scholarships, programs, faculty, facilities or other areas of your choosing.

Minimum requirements vary based on the type of endowment. Our team of philanthropic advisors is ready to assist you in creating a meaningful and lasting impact.

Endowments often honor benefactors or individuals they wish to honor. Our team will ensure your gift is honored with appropriate naming and a thoughtfully crafted biography, which is optional.
