Benefits of Endowment
Endowed gifts are held by the University in perpetuity. The initial gift is invested and only a portion of the average annual investment return is spent. The remaining income is added to the principal as protection against inflation. Thanks to the generosity of friends and alumni, Penn State New Kensington has 49 endowments, including 12 trustee scholarships. Most of these funds are scholarships named for individuals and families who are closely connected to the campus. Recently, several endowments have been added to support technology, the Honors Program, and student leadership development. We are grateful to the alumni and friends who have demonstrated their commitment to New Kensington students and faculty through endowments.
You can contact Donna Speer, director of development, to discuss the many options available to donors who wish to support Penn State New Kensington. Donna will assist you in creating a gift that meets your personal interests and matches the needs of the University. Call 724-334-6057 or dms46@psu.edu via email.
