Establishing an Endowment

Endowments can be created for:

• Scholarships and Internships
• Fellowships and Professorships
• Colleges, Departments and Programs
• Capital and Special Projects

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 immediately, over a three-year period or as part of a planned gift. As the donor, you determine the name and designation.

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.
