Continuing the Legacy A G I F T T O H U T C H I S O N ’ S E N D O W M E N T is the most effective way to make a positive difference in the School’s long-term financial health and to express your support for the School’s program. Endowed funds allow donors to direct gifts to specific areas of interest, such as faculty salaries, professional development, academic programs, athletics, and the arts. Some funds may be restricted for a particular use such as financial assistance, while other funds may provide unrestricted support. Earnings from each assist the overall operating budget by providing support for all aspects of the School’s program. Your gift also ensures that the programs you value most are available to girls today and tomorrow. You may choose to create your own named fund with a minimum gift of $75,000, or you may join others to support an area of interest at any gift level. Hutchison is honored when a family or other individual wishes to establish a permanent endowment fund as a tribute to a family member, faculty member, or to Hutchison in general. For further information on establishing an endowed fund, please contact Ruth Carr, Development Director at 901.507.2466 or rcarr@hutchisonschool.org.
