About the Foundation Fund
The Foundation Fund of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletic Administrators is an extension of the NACWAA organization in which individuals and corporations make financial contributions to NACWAA through donations of cash, stocks, charitable gifts and life insurance. Financial contributions are used to enhance educational programs, professional development opportunities, scholarship and internship opportunities to achieve the mission of the Association. The Foundation Fund is the official fundraising arm of NACWAA for the purpose of soliciting tax deductible contributions. Through the Foundation Fund, fundraising activities are conducted for the expansion of educational programs and scholarships for the association. The Board of Directors establishes the criteria for use and distribution of funds, application and selection of the recipients.
The goal of the NACWAA Foundation Fund is to distribute annually an amount less than the investment return thus growing the base corpus. The base corpus must reach $100,000 prior to the distribution of funds. The Foundation Fund is used to support and enhance educational programs, including NACWAA/HERS and the advancement of opportunities for women in athletics and or sports related careers.
