Endowments

Families, friends, and businesses honor and memorialize individuals, corporations, and students through endowed gifts to the Foundation. Endowments are established and invested with a minimum gift of $15,000 and are permanent funding sources for programs, scholarships, and other financial assistance. These funds provide the annual earnings to support these awards.
