Gambles Add $10,000 Pledge to Endowment Named in Their Honor
UNIVERSITY PARK (Monday, Dec. 14)—Glenn and Nancy Gamble, longtime Center for the Performing Arts benefactors and volunteers, have pledged an additional $10,000 to the Penn State endowment that bears their names.
The Glenn and Nancy Gamble Endowment for the Center for the Performing Arts now totals $36,000. The Gambles created the endowment in 2006 with a pledge of $25,000. They pledged an additional $1,000 the following year.
“This significant increase to their endowment by Glenn and Nancy Gamble is very appreciated and will help provide important increased support for the Center for the Performing Arts programming,” said George Trudeau, director of the Center for the Performing Arts. “Once again the Gambles have demonstrated their ongoing commitment to the center and interest in ensuring a lasting legacy of fine programs for the benefit of all.”
The endowment helped to fund master classes related to the Count Basie Orchestra presentation in 2007 and the Blue Note Records 70th Anniversary Tour presentation in 2009. This season endowment funds are being used to sponsor the residency and Jan. 26 performance of the Capuçon-Angelich Trio.
The Center for the Performing Arts named the Gambles co-recipients of its 2006 Distinguished Service Award. The Gambles have sponsored a presentation at the center each season since 2003–2004. They are also center members at the Director’s Circle level.
Glenn Gamble has served on the center’s Community Advisory Council, and the couple has worked in various ways to get residents of The Village at Penn State, where they live, to become involved with the center.
