BECOMING A COLISEUM FOUNDATION CONTRIBUTOR
It is common knowledge that the cost of a college education
has increased dramatically in the past few years, and continues to increase, approaching $50,000 annually at leading private institutions. The costs at public institutions
are also high and the gap is closing.
The Coliseum Foundation's goal is to continue to seek high quality students who
have already made an impact in their schools and communities and are most likely
to be positive impact players in society for the rest of their lives.
Each year, $76,375 is needed to pay the scholarships for thrity-six students.
All current scholarships are for $2,750 per year for four years.
Donations of any amount are welcomed.
The benefits are several. They range from the satisfaction that one has enabled
some bright mind to fulfill its destiny through higher education which may not
otherwise have been available, to the tax advantages that may be available to the
contributor. The tax aspects of a gift to a 501 (c)(3) non-profit tax-exempt
organization such as the Colisuem
Foundation cannot be overlooked.
There are currently three areas to which to donate: 1) General scholarship donations,
(2) become a Coliseum Colleague, and (3), endow a named scholarship. All three
programs are administered by the Coliseum Foundation. Approximately ninety
percent of income from general scholarship donations and investments has been applied
for scholarships paid to the students.
