How to create a fund
Endowed Funds
Typically, endowed funds provide money for scholarships which may be restricted based on geography or area of study. Endowed funds also support scholarly activity or provide travel or award funds for research or exemplary achievements.
Often, an endowed fund is established to recognize and honor a person such as a mentor or a deceased family member. If desired, a donor can fund an endowment over a period of years.
