Naming Opportunities

Stevenson University offers many opportunities for gifts that perpetuate the names of donors or those they designate. Endowed funds may be established to support scholarships, faculty salaries, and professional development as well as specific academic programs. The principal of endowed funds remains invested and untouched in perpetuity, generally with about five percent of the investment earnings being used each year for the specific purpose designated by the donor. Other gift opportunities afford donors the naming rights to specific campus spaces. Many donors choose to honor or memorialize a family member, friend, or faculty member through the naming of an endowed fund.
