Endowment
A robust endowment is one of the main factors in ensuring an insitution's financial and academic strength over the long term. At Lynchburg College, we are committed to increasing our endowment so we can recruit and support the most talented students and faculty and provide our students with an educational experience that prepares them to be effective leaders in their careers as well as in the civic, spiritual, and social dimensions of their lives.
The Power of an Endowed Gift
The power of an endowed gift is compelling: It serves the institution in perpetuity. An endowed gift becomes part of the donor's legacy as it ensures a scholarship year after year; as it enables countless students to study abroad; as it sustains a research program so it can provide sound, longitudinal results; as it provides two cans of red paint every April to touch up the Adironack chairs on the Dell.
