Rockhurst University Endowment

Rockhurst University manages an endowment fund which is based in Kansas City, Missouri. The endowment allows financially disadvantaged students to study abroad or participate in service trips to third world countries. The income from endowment provides the honorarium to bring guests of national and international repute to campus each year to discuss timely and timeless subjects. The primary objective of the fund is to maintain its purchasing power while reducing, to the greatest extent possible, the possibility of loss. The investment strategy is determined by the finance committee.
