Your Gift Can Last Forever
A gift to establish an endowment at Creighton University today provides a brighter picture for our future. When you contribute to an endowment, you give a gift with both immediate and long-term benefits.
Endowment donations are invested. A percentage of the endowment account annually is used to address immediate needs at Creighton. The remaining funds are reinvested to ensure perpetual support.
An Example of How It Works
Longtime supporters of Creighton University, Charlie and Susan have two goals: First, they want to make sure Creighton continues to receive support after they are gone. Second, they want to create a lasting legacy for Charlie’s parents.
Charlie and Susan make a $50,000 donation to Creighton, which we invest, and each year, a percentage of the endowment account’s value will be used to support our mission or for a purpose selected by Charlie and Susan in honor of Charlie’s parents. Plus, Charlie and Susan qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction on their taxes for their $50,000 contribution.
