A Lasting Gift
Your gifts are a great way to give something positive and useful to future generations in your community. Your gifts will help students forever. Most donations go to the Maquoketa Valley Scholarship Endowment Fund, our largest fund. A donation totaling $5,000 or more can be a Named Endowment. A donor or group of donors can start with $500 and continue to contribute until a Named Endowment is funded. Earnings from Endowment Funds pay for scholarships each year.
