PGSF Establishes New Level For Endowments

The Print and Graphics Scholarship Foundation (PGSF) has established a new level for endowments. The Pinnacle en- dowment is designed to recognize individuals, companies, and associations that have contributed over $250,000 to the Foundation. This new level complements the existing three levels al- ready in place. At present, seven endowments have reached this level of support each year, providing $200,000 in scholarships to students studying Graphic Arts. Annually, the Foundation provides more than $600,000 in scholarships and grants to assist these students and educational institutions. PGSF is grateful for the support of more than 150 organizations and individuals who help fund students, educators, and the future workforce in Graphic Communications. PGSF now has four levels of endowments, including the Gutenberg level at $100,000, the Senefelder level at $50,000, and the Print Heritage level at $25,000. The foundation also receives annual funding from many in- dividuals and companies, ranging from $25 to $20,000 a year.
