How endowments work

Philanthropists' donations are invested so that the KIMEP Alumni Endowment Fund has an annual income that can be spent on statutory goals while the “body of capital” remains unchanged.


The KAEF is a non-profit organization: none of the founders of the fund receive any monetary compensation for their work at the fund, while a financial activity is transparent and reflected in the annual report.

KIMEP Alumni Endowment Fund: helping more students to get an education that changes society
KIMEP Magazine interview

It all started in May 2022 during an alumni dinner with the KIMEP administration. Dr. Bang — the University rector — gave a speech about the history of KIMEP. Since the establishment of the university in 1992 the focus has been on creating an institution that would provide world-class education in Kazakhstan.


A university that could provide access to quality education in English without the need to study abroad.


A university that would give the majority of students the opportunity to change their lives for better.

Founders

We believe that now is the right time to support our alma mater — KIMEP — and the university's students, who will receive a world-class education.
