Endowed gifts are gifts that are made to Friends' Central School and invested to produce ongoing income. The endowment is carefully overseen by the Investment Committee of the Board of Trustees. Each year, about 5% of a rolling three-year average is used by the School to support faculty, students and programs. Many generous and loyal friends of the School have established endowed funds at Friends' Central School.

Depending on the wishes of these donors, endowed gifts are earmarked as unrestricted or restricted. Restricted gifts may be used to support financial aid, faculty salaries, professional development, or another area of the donor's interest. They may be named after the donor, or in memory, or in honor of someone of the donor's choosing.
