Endowment

With the support of our Board of Trustees, CSIS continues to seek permanent institutional support over and above the annual giving of benefactors and sponsors.

Endowment funding is especially critical to providing CSIS with long-term program and infrastructure support. CSIS has benefited from the generosity of its benefactors toward the current endowment of $30 million. Endowment gifts provide donors with naming and commemorative opportunities, including chairs, programs, and fellowships. Donations are welcome at all levels.
