Empowering women one degree at a time
Create your giving legacy!
Legacy giving is the WEDC Foundation's Endowment Fund plan.
Our vision is to create a legacy of accomplished and independent women who will share their energy and success. You can share in our vision of making a difference through Legacy Giving by making a bequest to the WEDC Foundation in your will
or by committing to an endowment gift today.
​
​
Your bequest may be designated for our
-
General Fund
-
Flexible Financial Assistance
-
As a named endowment for investment in the WEDC Foundation Endowment Fund
​
Your commitment to the Legacy Giving Endowment Fund can take place on several different levels:
-
A specific dollar amount
-
A percent of your estate
or -
Specific assets or a contingency bequest
Your legacy gift will make a difference in the lives of current and future scholars who are continuing to harness the power of higher education and achieve self-sufficiency. ​Please speak with your attorney to make the charitable donation of your choosing.
Typically, requests for a named scholarship fund endowment requires a minimum gift or bequest of $10,000 over a three-year period.
In celebration of our 25th Anniversary, we now offer a
25th Anniversary Named Endowment with a minimum gift or bequest of $10,000 over a four-year period at $2,500 a year!
There is no better way to make a difference in the lives of women, their future generations, and for the future women leaders in our community.
