Endowment Funds

Endowment gifts provide lasting support for Old Trail.

Gifts to Old Trail's endowment are particularly valuable because these gifts are invested in perpetuity, creating a permanent source of funding for ongoing priorities, such as academic programs, professional development, faculty salaries and benefits, financial aid and facilities maintenance. 

Investing in the endowment is a commitment to the students of tomorrow—ensuring Old Trail remains a vibrant place for discovery 10, 20, and 30 years from now, while simultaneously helping to moderate tuition increases. The gift is never spent; each year a portion of the investment gain is used to support Old Trail’s operations.

How to Make an Endowment Gift

Endowment gifts can be established through a variety of flexible funding options designed to align with your personal financial goals. Gifts can be multi-year pledges or one time contributions.
