Huron
University Foundation
The Huron University
Foundation was organized and incorporated in 1982 exclusively as a
non-profit educational and charitable corporation originally
intended for the benefit and purposes of Huron College/University
and the students. Since 1987, the Foundation has been the guardian
of the endowment fund of the college and responsible for awarding
scholarships to deserving students. With the closing of the school
in 2005, the Attorney General of South Dakota has directed the
purpose of the Huron University Foundation is to be for the “benefit
of Huron area students attending accredited post-secondary
educational institutions.” The Huron University Foundation is
directed by nine trustees who are respected civic leaders. It is an
independent foundation with money management by the South Dakota
Community Foundation which guarantees the perpetuity of annual
awarding of scholarships by the Huron University Foundation.
To preserve the
memory and history of Huron College/University, the Huron University
Foundation will award scholarships to deserving Huron area students
attending accredited post-secondary institutions. These scholarships
represent the Huron College Endowment Fund and additional gifts to
the Huron University Foundation.
