Support the Future of Angelo State
Endowments are permanent funds that generate distributions to fund scholarships, programs or other purposes specified by the donors who establish them. Endowments can be created for:
- Scholarships or Internships
- Fellowships or Professorships
- Colleges, Departments or Programs
- Capital and Special Projects
As you establish an endowment, you have the opportunity to name the fund and its designation. Once the fund is established, anyone may contribute. Often, family and friends make tribute gifts because they believe in the cause or program the endowment supports.
Endowments allow the university to recruit superb faculty and students while building programs to enhance enrollment and the overall well-being of ASU. A gift of at least $25,000 is needed to establish an endowment. It can be paid all at once, over a three-year period or as part of a planned gift.
Endowment gifts are accepted and managed by the ASU Foundation in perpetuity. A portion of the investment earnings are used to directly fund your project, while the corpus of the original gift is preserved as principal. Annual reports are provided that reflect investment performance and spending of the distributions.
