Endowment
Blair Scholars Program
Minimum Gift: $1 million
Donors of gifts of $1 million or larger, designated for scholarship support, may choose to establish a Scholars Program in their name or another name of their choosing. The establishment of a named scholars program allows multiple students to be named recipients of scholarship aid, which is provided through the generosity of the donor’s gift. Students who are chosen as recipients of the donor’s named scholars program shall thereafter be designated as named scholars, and they will carry this designation throughout their time at Blair as long as they remain qualified and deserving recipients.
Blair Endowed Scholarship
Minimum Gift: $100,000
Donors of gifts of $100,000 or larger, designated for scholarship support, will be recognized with a scholarship in their name or another name of their choosing. Previous donors have chosen to honor parents, spouses or children with named scholarships. Each year, recipients of named scholarships write to the donor to report on their Blair experience.
Named Teaching Chair
Minimum Gift: $1,000,000
Named teaching chairs recognize and honor the extraordinary contributions of senior faculty members who have at least 10 years’ teaching experience. Recipients will be known as the holder of the named chair in all Blair communications and will receive a chair and annual stipend.
Named Faculty Development Fund
Minimum Gift: $100,000
A gift of $100,000 (and larger for specific programs or departments) is required to establish a named faculty development fund, the endowment income from which supports the work of the classroom teaching, academic study and professional development of the faculty.
Endowed Department/Program Fund
Minimum Gift: $100,000
A gift of $100,000 or larger will establish a named department or program fund, the endowment income from which supports that academic department or extracurricular area.
Donors wishing to support scholarship aid or faculty enrichment may also make gifts of any amount restricted for these purposes. For more details regarding endowed gifts, please contact:
