New Incubator Endowments
The NCSU Libraries created Incubator Endowment accounts to provide
an alternative for donors who want to support the library's collections
but who would like more than five years to achieve full library
endowment status ($15,000). These accounts are named, perpetual
funds administered by the NCSU Libraries within an endowment held
by the NC State University Foundation. Incubator endowments may
be created with an initial gift of $1,000 or more, and the donor
may select a preference for a collection area.
