Donors may, however, wish to channel support to specific programs that are most meaningful to them personally. Enduringly important areas of interest include scholarships, support for the library and the academic program, and underwriting the purchase of instructional equipment. Lawrence's conservative endowment management and spending guidelines call for only a portion of endowment total return to be spent each year. Please feel free to discuss these issues with the Lawrence development staff . They can advise you of the best way to accomplish a meaningful result from your generosity.
Individual circumstances dictate careful planning prior to any financial decision of magnitude.
Lawrence is ready to assist you and your professional advisors in determining the best strategy for your situation. Naming opportunities that mesh the interests of donors with the needs of the college are available for gifts to Lawrence. In addition to named endowed funds, gifts for building projects, instruments, and instructional equipment may present additional opportunities for appropriate and enduring recognition.
