There are many opportunities to honor or commemorate people or families by establishing endowed funds in their name.
Endowed funds provide an ongoing, perpetual source of funding for a program, college, or department.
Endowed scholarships offer a permanent legacy, providing the opportunity for future students to pursue their dreams. Major gifts given by foundations or corporations also are eligible for naming opportunities. Other campus naming opportunities are also available, such as in the areas of academic programs, special library collections, scholarships, building renovations, laboratories and named buildings. Tributes and Memorials Holidays, birthdays, weddings and other special events provide excellent opportunities to honor children, friends or relatives in a meaningful and lasting way. A gift of any size to the CSUS Tribute Fund in the name of the honoree will result in the University sending a personal card to the honoree, informing them that a Tribute Fund gift has been made in his or her name, but with no amount specified.
