WVU AT PARKERSBURG FOUNDATION Scholarships
Many generous gifts to the Foundation have provided scholarships to
West Virginia University at Parkersburg students. Scholarship funds can be
established in a variety of ways.
A donation of $15,000 is required to establish an endowed
scholarship. The donor who is building a fund to reach an endowment level is
given five years to complete the process. Once the fund is endowed, the
Foundation Board of Directors officially accepts the fund as part of its
permanent endowment. Contributions to an endowed fund are considered endowment
principal and are invested in accordance with the investment policies of the
Foundation. Distribution of income is determined by the WVU at Parkersburg
Foundation in accordance with its policy on endowed fund spending.
A non-endowed scholarship fund can be established at any
time with a minimum gift of $1,000. It is preferred that a minimum of $1,000
remain in the fund at all times. Scholarships are distributed in amounts as
defined by the donor and by the WVU at Parkersburg Foundation Board through
mutual agreement.
Endowed and non-endowed funds may be established in the donor's own
name or in memory of or in honor of a loved one. Both types of funds may receive
