Endowments

 

The American College Endowment actually consists of a number of funds that contribute to the support of the College usually through interest received on invested assets.  Benefactors to The American College may contribute to an already-existing fund, or if they wish to begin a new fund ($10,000 minimum) for a special purpose they are most welcome to do so.
Our Endowment and Scholarship Funds include:

  • American College Endowment Fund: Dedicated to on-going general support of The American College.
  • Rev. Melvin T. Long Endowment Fund: Created by American College alumnus, formation faculty member and development officer, Father Melvin T. Long.  This fund is dedicated to the on-going general support of The American College.
  • Bishop Charles P. Greco Fund: Managed by the Knights of Columbus.  This fund provides annual support to general needs of The American College.
  • DeRance Scholarship Fund: Dedicated to offering an annual scholarship to seminarians studying philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy in Louvain.
