Endowments

Endowed gifts are donated assets invested to generate an annual return in perpetuity. Endowments provide a source of financial stability during challenging economic times and ensure the continuance of many important programs. These gifts may be unrestricted, providing for the greatest needs of the college, or restricted to a particular use.  Endowments are established with a minimum contribution of $20,000 through outright gifts pledged to be paid over a number of years.  They also can be established now and funded later through estate bequests, gift annuities, trusts, and insurance expectancies.

Just like cash gifts, planned gifts may be unrestricted or designated for a specific purpose within the Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing. Planned gifts may also be used to establish an endowment.
