A healthy endowment ensures the strength, stability and independence of the University over time. With an endowment, the principal of a gift is invested in perpetuity and a portion of the annual interest is used by UMass Lowell for the purpose for which the fund was established. Endowment gifts are managed for UMass Lowell by the University of Massachusetts Foundation, Inc.
