Create An Endowed Fund or Endowed Scholarship

Donors wanting to provide a sustaining and lasting future for Bethlehem University can do so by establishing an Endowed Fund at the Bethlehem University Foundation. The Foundation invests your gift in the United States and uses the interest earned to provide annual financial support for the endowed fund purpose. Endowed Funds have been established to underwrite specific Faculties (Schools) or programs at the University, to provide general support to the University, to fund educational development, to underwrite programs at the Foundation, or other uses as specified by the donor. Endowed Funds are managed by the Board of Directors of the Foundation and are invested with T. Rowe Price. With an initial gift of $30,000 and a pledge of at least $100,000 payable over 5 years, you can establish an Endowed Fund at the Bethlehem University Foundation. Please note that many Endowed Funds are created by individuals or organizations pooling donations.  Click here to view and download an Endowed Fund Pledge Agreement.

Create an Endowed Scholarship with the Bethlehem University Foundation

Creating an Endowed Scholarship at the Bethlehem University Foundation is a perpetual gift that each year covers the tuition of a needy student at Bethlehem University.  An Endowed Scholarship, named after an organization or in honor/memory of an individual, is a “forever scholarship,” allowing Bethlehem University Foundation to invest your gift and send a portion of the annual income to Bethlehem University. Scholarship recipients are selected by Bethlehem University based on need and academic merit. With a gift of $30,000, you can establish an Endowed Scholarship. An Endowed Scholarship is fully-funded at $100,000 and will cover the costs associated with educating one student at Bethlehem University each year. With a down payment of at least $30,000 accompanied by the signed Pledge Agreement below, an Endowed Scholarship will be established by the Foundation. Many of the Endowed Scholarships are created by individuals or organizations pooling their donations. Endowed Scholarship payments can be completed over a period of five years.
