Endowing a Scholarship

WHAT A SCHOLARSHIP MEANS

A scholarship can change the life of an individual and, in doing so, it can change the life of a family.

HOW TO ENDOW A SCHOLARSHIP

Many families and organizations choose to endow a scholarship with the Foundation. This means the principal is invested carefully by the Foundation and a portion of the interest is awarded each year as a scholarship in the name of the individual or organization.  A scholarship can be endowed for $15,000 in one payment or over a period of years. An endowed scholarship is a lasting tribute which will benefit one student each semester in perpetuity. Scholarships of varying amounts can also be given on an annual basis in the name of an individual or organization. To discuss endowing a scholarship at GCCC, please call Margie Mazur at (850) 872-3812.
