How You can Help

The easiest way for donors to foster faculty thought leadership is by giving to the HBS Fund. As our annual fund, the HBS Fund supports new initiatives and core priorities, and donors have the option to direct their gift specifically to faculty, case writing, and research.

Some donors prefer to set up their own fund, which can be targeted to faculty development or a specific research area. These funds require a minimum gift: $250,000 for current-use and $500,000 for endowment. To learn more, please call 617.495.6881 (toll-free: 877.448.3864) or email us.

You can also support HBS faculty and their research through your will or a charitable trust. Learn more about how these and other planned gifts enable you to make philanthropy a part of your financial or estate planning.

The HBS Fund Investors Society recognizes leadership annual donors.
