Endowment

Your investment in the Hope College endowment is an investment in Hope’s future.

Our endowment generates a permanent source of income that is used to provide financial aid to students, expand student-faculty research opportunities, continue academic initiatives, recruit and retain exceptional faculty and support programs in perpetuity.

Establishing an endowment is a visionary and generous act that will benefit Hope. It will give the college a competitive edge now and far into the future.

你的礼物可以被指定用于支持对你有意义的具体工作,也可以是不受限制的,让它成为及时或关键的优先事项和机会的资源。
