Most of our funds are received by donations made by friends of the Norse Fund with no restrictions made on how their contribution is to be used. This type of donation allows the Board to use the monies received in any way that benefits the Norse Fund.
Flow-through contributions are funds of $500 or more that the donor wants to be awarded to one or more students. These types of contributions have to be communicated to the Board by March 1st, and funds have to be received by May 1st to be awarded at the Spring Award Presentation. Minimum amounts are generally $500, but other amounts may be considered.
These types of contributions are a form of restricted funds that the donor wants the Norse Fund to hold and award over time. Time-restricted contributions have to be at a minimum of $1,000 but can be for larger amounts. The Board holds these funds and awards a minimum of $500 each year to one or more students.
Permanently restricted contributions are also called endowed contributions. This is where a donor contributes a larger sum of monies that is invested to yield an amount that is annually awarded to one or more students. From time to time, the policies on permanently restricted minimum contributions and yields have changed. The current Permanently Restricted Contribution levels are:
$ 5,000 Contribution = $250 Scholarship
$ 7,500 Contribution = $375 Scholarship
$10,000 Contribution = $500 Scholarship
Upon acceptance of the money the board will not change the scholarship amounts.
