The Schefers Servant Leadership Loan Program

Your matching gift is doubled up to $250,000. Double your impact with a gift today.

Starting in 2020, the Schefers gave generous gifts totaling         $500,000 to start an internal student loan program.  The loan is given at a low-interest rate (which is put back into the fund to help others) and the payback can be either working at Daystar (such as a postgraduate student teaching undergrads) or making payments once they have secured a job.  The requirement is that we cannot use the funds until they are matched, so the goal is to reach a million dollars in the fund.  So far $113,250 has been given towards the match, so $226,500 is available for student loans! 

The loan program was begun with the condition that the original $500,000, will only be available for student loans when matched, with the hope of reaching $1,000,000 for needy students.

ENDOWMENTS
Our scholarship endowments are the financial building blocks to help Daystar look to the future with confidence.  An endowment gift is the single most important way to make the university available to students for years to come.  As the endowments grow, Daystar can expand its ability to challenge and nourish lives.  When you help with a deferred gift, you take a very personal stake in the kind of education that builds Christian character as it creates an environment of academic excellence.

PLANNED GIVING
Through planned gifts you can support Daystar University while improving your financial security. In fact, just one planned gift can return an immediate tax deduction to you, plus lifetime income for you and a loved one, plus long-term financial support to Daystar.
