APFSP Legacy Endowment Fund

The Academy of Professional Funeral Service Practice Board of Trustees has adopted a resolution to establish the Legacy Endowment Fund to accept donations from all eligible sources for the purpose of promoting education in funeral service and mortuary science.

Any donor who gives $1,000 or more to the Legacy Endowment Fund, either in a lump sum or through installment payments, will be recognized as a Legacy Fellow and will receive a Legacy Fellow pin that signifies the donor's generosity and commitment to continuing education and life-long learning.

The Board of Trustees of the Academy will grant scholarships and make bequests from the income, appreciation and any other earnings generated by the Legacy Endowment Fund for the purpose of funding mortuary science and funeral service education for mortuary science students and funeral service practitioners.
