Endowed Scholarships

You Can Give the Gift of Education

You have the chance to do something remarkable. Something that can change the trajectory of a student’s life.

By establishing a scholarship or contributing to an existing fund, you can transform someone’s future.

The best part? Anyone can do it, and there are multiple ways to create or contribute to one without using cash. You can choose giving options that make an impact today, after your lifetime or both! 

Our alumni and friends give toward scholarships for many unique and personal reasons. For some, it’s a way to pay it forward for financial support they received while attending college. For others, it’s how they say “thank you” for a life-changing experience they had at Duke Divinity School. Still others use named scholarships to honor someone who had a major influence on their life.

Let’s Work Together

To learn more, please contact us. We would be honored to partner with you to create a scholarship that reflects what you love most at Duke Divinity School and delivers the impact you envision. Thank you for believing in the potential of our students and the transformational power of education.
