ENDOWMENTS

With an endowment gift you have the opportunity to help support—on a permanent basis—one of several exciting programs at the Hop. Income from an endowment can be used to fund a Hop program in perpetuity. This means the Hop will always be able to count on your gift to provide students and the surrounding communities with events of the highest artistic standards.

The following major endowment funds, provided by generous donors to the Hopkins Center, help make possible this season's performances.* Numerous other endowments contributed by Dartmouth alumni/ae, family and friends are critically important in funding each season's performances because ticket sales cover less than 40% of the cost of performances.
