Prescott College Endowment

The goal of this fundraising effort, the first of its kind for the College, is to increase the College's endowment to $1 million, the first increment in a plan for endowment growth that will enable Prescott College to make commitments far into the future, knowing that resources to meet those commitments will be available.

The Prescott College Endowment will provide stability. Because the principal of the endowment will not be spent, and because a portion of annual earnings will be reinvested in the endowment, the College will always have a source of funds that will increase over time as the endowment grows with the addition of new gifts. The endowment will reduce the College's dependency on tuition income, and eventually provide support for faculty development, innovative academic programs, the Library and other facilities, and other essential facets of the College.

The Prescott College Endowment will help to leverage other sources of revenue. When Prescott College looks to the private sector for major gifts and grants to support its mission and plans for the future, a growing endowment demonstrates that Prescott College is committed to achieving and maintaining stability for future generations of students - stability that will build and maintain teaching and learning facilities, attract the highest caliber faculty, and offer financial aid that will enable the best and brightest of students to attend Prescott College regardless of financial need.
