Historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) play a key role in uplifting students and communities. However, their endowments - crucial to their financial stability and growth - face serious systemic challenges. As part of PGIM's long-held commitment to advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion, we conducted a first-of-its-kind directional study in partnership with UNCF (United Negro College Fund) to understand the constraints that HBCU investment professionals face in growing their endowments and the impactful role the asset management industry can play to support them in their endowment efforts. Both PGIM and UNCF seek to support HBCU students, faculty and endowment stewards, ensuring the sustainability of these critical institutions to support the next generation of investment professionals.

Before long, school bells will be ringing again. If you’ve set up Section 529 college savings plans for your kids or grandkids, you know these plans bring federal (and possibly state) tax advantages. For example, qualified withdrawals are free from federal income tax, subject to limitations. But 529 accounts aren’t just for college. The funds can generally also be used to pay for K-12 tuition costs at a public, private or religious school, or to purchase required materials for a beneficiary to be part of a qualified apprenticeship program. Eligible withdrawals can also be used to pay a beneficiary’s college loans, up to $10,000, once in a lifetime. Questions? Contact us.

We're pleased to announce a new initiative in support of youth impacted by ALS. The Elinore Nudelman College Savings Plan is dedicated to honoring the legacy of individuals who have battled Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) by securing a brighter educational future for their children.  This unique program offers the establishment of a funded 529 College Savings Plan through the Oregon College Savings Program for children who have lost a parent or guardian to ALS, providing a pathway to educational opportunities without financial burden. A 529 College Savings Plan is an investment designed to make saving for college and other educational expenses more manageable. Contributions to a 529 plan grow tax-free, and withdrawals are not taxed when used for qualified educational costs. These costs can include tuition and fees associated with college, apprenticeships, or vocational schools. Elinore Nudelman, the inspiration behind this program, was a remarkable woman known for her dedication to education and helping others. Her legacy lives on through this initiative, made possible through a partnership between her family and ALS Northwest. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/gA64qJ3w
