An endowed scholarship is one that has been established to continue forever. It may have been established to honor a donor, a loved one, an organization or it may also have been established to "pay it forward" for a blessed life. Endowed Scholarships are established with donations in multiples of $10,000. Every year the Endowment Association will give away five percent of the original investment to the selected candidate(s). Once an endowed scholarship has been established, it will forever impact students within USD 416. It will continue in perpetuity leaving a legacy that truly will stand the test of time.
