About the Hendrix Fund

Your gift to the Hendrix Fund fuels progress and powers the Hendrix community.

The Hendrix Fund is the engine of transformation at our College—turning generosity into opportunity, and potential into achievement. Every gift to the Hendrix Fund directly touches the lives of our students and faculty, opening doors, removing barriers, and creating the conditions where dreams can take flight. While our endowment provides essential support, it is often bound by specific purposes. The Hendrix Fund is unrestricted—and that makes it powerful.

Fueling scholarships, innovative programs, and life-changing experiences, the Hendrix Fund ensures that every student at Hendrix has the chance to thrive, grow, and shape a brighter future. Your support transforms lives!
