Invest in Building Leaders
Without the Endowment, Doane University would not just be ineffective, we would not be able to survive. This critical resource ensures we can continue to build our students into leaders.
Why Increase Our Endowment?
Our campuses and offices are vibrant hubs of daily activity. Students utilize residence halls and dining facilities, faculty engage in groundbreaking research and deliver lectures, and staff provide vital support to keep our institution running smoothly. While these elements may seem routine, each incurs unique costs.
To sustain our commitment to educational innovation, address research needs, and manage the upkeep of our historic campus, we must depend on a strong endowment fund. The endowment represents our only source of permanent capital, serving as the reliable funding necessary to cover these essential expenses.
Provide the Fuel for Progress
Fuel is needed to sustain the resulting expenses of other campaign opportunities and continue to grow as a university. The Endowment is that fuel.
Endowment Builds Students into Leaders
The Endowment is a set of invested funds which provides annual returns used to:
- Offer competitive tuition
- Support high-quality academic programs
- Attract and retain top faculty
- Ensure students with financial need can pursue a Doane University Education
Invest in Tomorrow's Tigers
The current Endowment fund value is $96,000,000. Through the Our Time to Lead comprehensive campaign, our goal is to increase the fund’s value by $18,000,000 in current and planned gifts. Growing the fund will ensure we can continue to provide a premier education in Nebraska for years to come.
