What investment is required to establish an endowed fund?
The amount required to establish an endowed fund at TCU varies depending on the fund’s purpose. For instance, a named scholarship can be endowed with a gift of $50,000 or more. Likewise, an endowed professorship can be named with a gift of $1 million or more and an endowed chair for $2.5 million or more. Some donors choose to contribute over time, building toward the naming level of their fund with each gift. Regardless of how long it takes to fund a named endowment, the benefits will support the University and its programs far into the future.
