Community Pillar
Endowment
The Community Pillar Endowment Scholarship program can make
a difference in the lives of others by putting education in
their reach. The program, focusing on "community pillar"
support, is in recognition of companies, businesses and individuals
who desire to strengthen the quality of life for others. In
return, donors' names will be permanently linked to the scholarship
each establishes. A $10,000 gift, which may be funded over a
period of years, creates a Community Pillar Endowment.

| The Francis Tuttle Society
Meridian Technology Center Foundation established The Francis
Tuttle Society in 1997, not only to honor Dr. Tuttle for his
unmatched contributions to vocational-technical education
but also to recognize generous donors who wish to put this
avenue of education within the grasp of those who cannot bear
its financial obligation on their own. The Society honors
individuals, corporations, foundations, and organizations
making gifts of $25,000 or more to Meridian Technology Center
Foundation. Their gifts help ensure training and education
for untold numbers of deserving and promising individuals
in the future.
Outright and planned gifts received by the Foundation create
named endowments, to provide resources that generate on-going
financial assistance for students enrolled in career and technology
training programs. Members of The Francis Tuttle Society receive
special recognition for their generosity, enjoy tax advantages,
and have the satisfaction of knowing they are leaving a lasting
legacy for future generations.
Options for planned gifts can benefit tax liability and the
Foundation at the same time. These include bequests to the
Foundation in a will, the gift of a life insurance policy
or of appreciated securities and property, the establishment
of a charitable trust, and the designation of the Foundation
as beneficiary to a retirement plan or IRA. |
