How to Donate (Gifts)

The Leifur Eiriksson Foundation is appealing to friends of Iceland and to supporters of international education, especially in those fields of science, technology, arts, and humanities that are most likely to be of special interest to U.S. and Icelandic students. Gifts of any size will benefit students in Iceland and the United States.

A gift of $100,000 to the Foundation will enable the donor to name an endowment to support a scholar or fellow for study.

A gift of $500,000 will enable the donor to name an endowed research professorship for study in Iceland or in the United States.
