Endowed Giving

Endowed Scholarships exist in perpetuity within MMI’s endowment. Income from these funds is used to support need-based financial aid to current MMI students. Endowed Scholarships are established with a minimum gift of $25,000.

Growing MMI’s endowment can significantly enhance the School’s long-term sustainability and impact. A larger endowment provides financial stability, allowing the MMI to weather economic fluctuations and maintain its commitment to educational excellence. With increased resources, MMI can invest in faculty development, expand scholarship opportunities, and upgrade facilities, ultimately enriching the overall learning experience for all of our students and fostering a continuing legacy of quality education.
