Endowments

Endowments are lifelong funds in which the principle sum remains invested permanently through the Foundation and generates annual interest. Endowments provide growth and stability in perpetuity for Upstate Medical University, as well as yearly income for scholarships, research, lectures, departmental programs, position funding, and more.

The minimum level of contribution to establish an endowment is $10,000. During the first quarter of each year, the endowment's fund coordinator receives notice of the availability of funds for expenditure (currently capped at 4.85% of the total market value of the endowment).

Please contact the Foundation at 315-464-4416.


"The most compelling reason to establish or contribute to a fund is to honor the legacy of the person for whom the endowment is named. Their legacy will live forever at Upstate."

-Eileen M. Pezzi, MPA
Vice President for Development
