Named Giving
Family Endowments, Bursaries, Scholarships & Awards
A named family fund is a wonderful way to contribute to a Rundle program that is especially meaningful to you, by establishing a fund that provides ongoing gifts that benefit tuition assistance or particular programs. Your family fund will reflect your values and commitment to Rundle by providing assurance that programs, important to you, will continue at Rundle as part of your family legacy.
Named Family Endowment Funds
In 2020, in celebration of Rundle College’s 35th Anniversary, we introduced our 35 for 35 Legacy Campaign.
We are happy to continue to offer our community the opportunity to create a Named Family Endowment Fund. This is a wonderful way to contribute to a Rundle program that is especially meaningful to you, by establishing a fund that provides an ongoing gift that will benefit tuition assistance or a particular program.

The principal of your family endowment fund will be held unspent, in perpetuity, with Rundle College Society, while the earnings from the invested assets are expended as per your family’s specific intention.
