Hendrix College has received a $10 million endowment challenge grant from the Windgate Foundation.
The funds will go to scholarships, financial aid, faculty and an expansion of programs.
“This extraordinary commitment from the Windgate Foundation strengthens the long-term foundation of Hendrix College,” Hendrix President Karen Petersen said. “The challenge will inspire donors to invest in the people and programs that define the Hendrix experience—supporting our faculty, expanding opportunities for students, and ensuring that Hendrix remains vibrant for the next 150 years. We are grateful for the Windgate Foundation’s continued support.”
The Windgate Foundation‘s challenge will match new donations to Hendrix of more than $100,000 one-to-one up to $10 million.
