Endowment
STRENGTHENING OUR ABILITY TO PLAN FOR THE FUTURE WITH CONFIDENCE
A growing endowment is essential for sustaining the impact of new buildings and programs into the future.
The university’s endowment, funded primarily through deferred (planned) gift commitments, provides ongoing support for students, faculty, academic programs and the university’s fiscal well-being.
Bluffton’s endowment currently includes more than 350 endowed student scholarship funds, two endowed faculty chairs, several funds for faculty research and student discovery, and funds established to provide operating support for buildings and the overall educational mission and program.
