Endowments funds are invested with the requirement that the original principal remain in the fund. A portion of the earned interest is spent each year. In this way, endowments provide fairly predictable income for the seminary for decades to come. Unspent interest is added back into the fund, with the goal of increasing the endowment itself over time.
As occurs at other institutions, many of our endowment funds are used for major projects. The general endowment provides income for defraying operating expenses each year. Others support named scholarships or bursaries.
Currently we are creating a new series of funds that we are looking for donations for that will help not only increase our operating abilities but grow the seminary faculty into the future. Please consider donating to the new Grace Fund for new Faculty.
