Betty and Stanley T'57, G'66 Menking Charitable Gift Annuity

Recognizing the importance of supporting scholarship at Drew, yet mindful of their desire for additional income, Stan and Betty Menking turned to the charitable gift annuity. "We've made two gift annuities that allow us to do this, while we receive income from those assets until our death," says Stan. "It is our hope that others will discover the joy and satisfaction of giving back to Drew."

The Menkings' gift annuity supports student scholarships while generating income for the couple, both with ties to Drew. A Theological School student who attended Drew on a scholarship, Stanley T'57, G'66 Menking became a pastor and founded Respond, Inc., a ministry in Camden, N.J., that still runs today. He later returned to Drew as an associate dean in the seminary. His wife, Betty, was Drew's first custodial supervisor and handled facilities maintenance for the campus.
