Donate OnlineThe NOLS Endowment is funding set aside in perpetuity to support the mission of the school. It’s made up of an array of gifts and accrued interest, and is permanently invested. The return earned on the investment can be used by NOLS for a variety of needs. Through the NOLS Endowment, a single gift provides continued support to the school in perpetuity. Because our endowment contains provisions that prohibit spending the principal, it provides important long-term stability, allowing NOLS to stay focused on its mission regardless of changing annual pressures or economic downturns.
How to Participate
You can contribute to the NOLS Endowment by making a gift to the fund as a whole, or—with a minimum pledge or gift of $150,000—establishing your own endowed scholarship.
Contact the development office at 800-332-4280 or development@nols.edu.
