An endowment is the time-honored method of allocating certain gifts to an investment fund. This fund is invested to earn income each year. As the principal grows, so does the income. The fund is used to support student-athlete scholarships, however the principal always remains invested in order to grow the fund.
When you make a gift to our endowment fund, it can be an outright gift or deferred. Your gift can turn into a legacy of annual gifts for Minnesota State student-athletes. You may make a gift to an already existing endowment or start one of your own. An endowment is a powerful way to support a gift to Minnesota State Athletics in your name, or in the name of a loved one, while also gaining tax benefits for your generosity.
If you would like to directly enhance the Minnesota State experience for current and future generations of MSU student-athletes, please contact:
