Unlock Potential ... Invest in Point Park University
Through a gift in your will or estate plans, you can invest in the success of the University and in future generations of Point Park students. Your plans today will strengthen the University now and in the future.
If you have already included Point Park University in your will or estate plans, we hope you will let us know. Your willingness to be listed as a member of the Founders Society encourages others to follow your example and provides a way for us to recognize and thank you during your lifetime.
