Some of the most extraordinary research resources anywhere
are made possible because of the contributions of our supporters.
One of the realities that organizations like SFBR face is
that we are only as successful as the resources we can provide
to support the research our scientists conduct. The most modern
equipment, laboratory facilities and technologies have been
funded by donations from our supporters.
A few examples include:
• Betty Slick and Lewis J. Moorman Jr., Laboratory
Complex
• SBC Genomics Computing Center
• Hixon Hospital
• Hurd Nursery
• Slick Building
Endowment funding enables SFBR to sustain excellence in scientific
staff and provide for the continuous improvement of programs,
facilities, and operations. To strengthen our claim on the
future, we must invest in strategies that assure the financial
strength of this unique institution devoted exclusively to
biomedical research.
One way of ensuring the long-term security of SFBR is to
earmark a donation for endowment, which provides resources
capable of generating ongoing support for operations, administration,
and maintenance. Revenue generated by a healthy endowment
helps free up valuable resources that can be dedicated to
research and program support.
A named endowment can provide a perpetual form of funding
and recognition to the donor. An endowment can enable the
Foundation to fund the creative spark in innovative research
… to support a great mind that toils every day …
to sponsor a financial investment in technology and facility
… all aimed at empowering man to answer scientific questions
earlier generations thought unanswerable.
