Endowments are an impactful way for donors to create a legacy, while generating continuous funding for scholarships, programs, and coaching. Your gift is invested through the OSU Foundation, which will provide annual distributions in perpetuity with the goal of providing quality experiences for student-athletes.
Creating an endowment will help Oregon State lead the nation in holistic student-athlete development with a focus on graduation, academic achievement, student-athlete wellness, and post-graduation success.
Oregon State Athletics has 100 endowed funds valued at $16.8 million. Increasing these funds will help us achieve the strategic goal of long-term financial sustainability while providing critical resources that support our student-athletes.
Your endowment will impact our student-athletes in numerous ways. Each year, a portion of the fund you establish (currently 4 percent) is transferred to support the program of your choice. Below is an example of the potential impact on your investment. More information about the investment performance of the Oregon State Foundation can be found by clicking here.
