Endowments
Leaving your legacy and investing in the future of girls living in rural villages of India who do not have access to world class education. For a donor, creating an endowment that is representative of philanthropic goals and values is a powerful way to make a lasting impact on the issues he or she values most. Endowments are critically important to UmaidCF to furnish consistent resource streams that support various initiatives and ensure the growing excellence and long-term stability of the institution.
An endowment is an investment in a shared future, because endowed funds support activities not just for one year, or even one generation, but forever. Endowments are created when donated money or other financial assets are invested in perpetuity by the academy. The return on investment is used to fund opportunities such as scholarships, endowed faculty chairs , programs or other purposes that serve the donor’s wishes.

An endowed program support fund may be used to provide for prizes or awards, to support seminars or STREAM educational activities, to purchase equipment or much needed supplies for the program, or other expenses as the endowment agreement permits.
Endowed Scholarship - $25,000
The financial hurdles facing many village girl students today are every bit as imposing as the academic ones. An endowed scholarship provides students help with tuition, fees, books, supplies, and other technology -related expenses as the endowment agreement permits.
