Endowment Giving

Build Your Legacy. Invest In Our Future

Secure your legacy with an endowment gift. Endowed funds may be established with a minimum gift of $25,000, given at once or over a period of time. Like many independent Preschool-12 schools, Moravian Academy’s endowment is a collection of endowed funds.  Some are restricted for specific purposes while others are unrestricted allowing for the most flexibility to support the school’s greatest needs. Both restricted and unrestricted endowment gifts play a crucial role in ensuring the School maintains robust endowment income each year. Moravian draws 4% from the endowment investment account, leaving the principal corpus intact, benefitting the school into perpetuity. 
Increasing our annual endowment income allows Moravian Academy to:
  • Stay competitive with peer schools with salary and benefits for our exceptional faculty.
  • Continue to offer a robust financial aid program.
  • Increase our annual operating budget for educational programs in need of enhancements.
If you’re considering establishing a new endowed fund, we would love to explore how your philanthropic vision can complement Moravian’s priorities. To learn more about our endowment goals and funding opportunities, please reach out to Bob Zaiser or Susan Parent in the Development office at 610-332-5291. We look forward to collaborating with you to make a lasting impact.
