In Honor / In Memory

What is a tribute gift?

A tribute gift memorializes or honors a family member or friend while also supporting Potomac State College. Gifts In Memory Of (IMO) or In Honor Of (IHO) alumni, friends, faculty, staff and students celebrate the relationship individuals have with the College and their community as they impact the educational experience students and faculty share on Potomac State’s campus each day.

Potomac State’s general policy is to place IMO/IHO gifts in our Potomac State College scholarship endowment, unless otherwise requested by the donor.

Gifts may be designated to create an endowed scholarship if the total reaches $25,000 or a Library Acquisitions Endowed Fund if it reaches $10,000.
