Endowments

It is easy to establish an endowed scholarship in your name, in the name of your business or in honor of someone you love. By doing so, an annual scholarship will be given in perpetuity to a student who meets the requirements of your scholarship.

A total commitment of $15,000 will create an endowed scholarship, but may begin with a $1,000 contribution. You will have seven years to complete your commitment and activate your endowment. Should you be unable to complete your $15,000 commitment within seven years, your gift will be transferred to the Foundation endowment.

Donations are accepted in the form of outright contributions, support of special events such as the annual Golf Tournament or StarGala, memorials or honorariums. For each multiple of $15,000 in a named endowment, a fixed scholarship award of $1,000 will be given annually.

Representatives of the Lone Star College Foundation will work with you to execute an endowment agreement, designed with or without criteria (stipulations, demographics, college or colleges attended, academic standing, academic programs, etc.) as you request.

An endowment created by December 31 will be awarded for the following academic year.

YES! I'd like to start an endowment.
