The Lander Foundation

Since its birth in 1948, The Lander Foundation has played a major role in the life of Lander University. For 25 years, The Foundation was the policy-making board of the University. When Lander moved from private to state support in 1973, The Lander Foundation was reorganized into an independent, non-profit organization operating solely to support Lander.

 

Purpose of The Foundation

Incorporated as a non-profit, 501c(3) organization under the laws of South Carolina, The Lander Foundation receives, manages, and invests gifts for the welfare of the University. The Foundation concentrates its work in two major areas:

  • Scholarships
  • Faculty/Staff Development and Research

The Foundation also responds to special needs and requests of the University.

Giving

Opportunities abound for benefactors to leave a legacy of caring and commitment to the students who will expand and enrich the empires of their minds. Find out how you can support the future of Lander University through The Lander Foundation.
