Endowed scholarships live on in perpetuity. A minimum gift of $10,000 will establish an endowed fund. Only the income earned is awarded each year.
Annual scholarships are awarded each year and are renewable on an annual basis. A
minimum $250 gift will establish a named annual scholarship.

The pooled funds are awarded annually in the name of "Friends of Allan Hancock College Scholarship."

| May I name a scholarship in honor of someone? |
| Scholarships are often named for a family member, a friend, a community leader, an organization or special event. A permanent fund can ensure the provision of your scholarship over time through our endowed scholarship program. Annual contributions are also a way of supporting the scholarship program and honoring someone special. |
