Naming Opportunities and Endowed Funds

A minimum gift of $100,000 establishes an endowed fund where the principal is preserved and the income generated is used to support the purposes specified by the donors. The minimum gift for naming opportunities in recognition of endowed gifts is $1 million.

Examples of existing funds include:

The Ess White Fellows Fund to support the fellowship program at Riggs
The Beverly Ann Fox Fund to support patient aid, Lavender Door and theatre program
The Yasmin Roberts Memorial Lecture Fund to support an annual lecture

Austen Riggs welcomes gifts in honor or memory of a friend, family member or a Riggs caregiver.
