Endowment Growth
Denver Seminary's
endowment experienced
growth thanks to
faithful givers' generous
donations and strong
market performance.
The largest portion of
endowed funds has been
established for student
scholarships.
Temporarily restricted
(current use donations)
gifts, which are used
over a very specific time
(usually less than five
years), were the largest
portion of 2017 gifts.
Thanks to regular
giving and estate gifts
throughout the year, the
overall endowment has
more than doubled over
the past five years.
