Want to create an Endowed Scholarship?
With a minimum commitment of $65,000 (which will yield a $2,500 scholarship annually), establishing an endowed scholarship is the perfect way to ensure the continuous honor of a company, favorite command or loved one. Scholarship endowments may be made in one lump sum or amortized over 1-4 years. Disbursements from endowments cannot be made until a minimum of $65,000 has been endowed.
