Mission and programs · 2022
Mission
The Eastern Washington University Foundation, a non-profit corporation, was established in 1977 under Washington law to identify, promote, receive, and manage all private gifts from individuals, corporations, foundations, and associations to Eastern Washington University. The Foundation is the catalyst and conduit through which gifts and endowment income flow to provide immediate and long-term support for the university and its programs. thus, the Foundation is a tool through which private support is raised and managed for the sole benefit of EWU.Overseen by a Board of Directors and staffed by a professional development team who are university employees, the Foundation administers all gifts in a business-like manner in accordance with the donor's wishes. When gifts are received by EWU colleges or operating units, they are forwarded for gift processing and official acceptance and acknowledgement by the Foundation.
Activities or mission (Part I)
To raise and manage resources in support of Eastern Washington University.
-
Supporting the UniversityEWU is state-assisted rather than state-supported with approximately 30 percent of Eastern's operation budget being provided by state appropriations. Focused on developing the university of the future-one that anticipates student expectations as well as the needs of the 21st century professional workforce-the EWU Foundation rigorously fundraises to account for a decline in state support. By working to build permanent endowments and future generations of benefactors, the EWU Foundation is taking steps to ensure that students and programs will receive necessary financial support long into the future.
Expenses $2,593,957 · Grants $2,593,957
-
Supporting StudentsFinancial assistance unlocks enormous potential by helping Eastern Washington University students graduate and enter the professional workforce. The EWU Foundation awarded 735 scholarships in 2023. With this support, students can focus on their studies, progress more quickly to their degrees and graduate debt-free or with greatly reduced debt.
Expenses $2,027,992 · Grants $2,027,992
-
Supporting FacultyThe EWU Foundation is committed to supporting faculty and staff proposals that will enhance the university and its mission to provide opportunities for student development, research, and participation. The EWU Foundation awards funds through the Eagle Grants Program. Those funds made learning and development programs possible in disciplines across campus, serving students at the highest level of excellence.
Expenses $54,500 · Grants $54,500 · Revenue $22,012

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)
