The Columbia Foundation can give you, your family or your business an opportunity to create a legacy and have a lasting impact on the community by opening a named fund in our endowment. You can open your fund with just $10,000 (scholarship funds have a required minimum of $20,000), which can be paid in a lump sum or in installments as part of a multi-year commitment.
Our endowment is a permanent source of income for our competitive grant programs. So your fund will benefit the community now, and into the future.
