CHARITY

COOK COLLEGE and THEOLOGICAL SCHOOL
Tempe, Arizona
Designated Charity of our Organization

This school is our designated charity, in honor of our beloved founder, Mrs. Kline d'Aurandt Engle (Caroline).

Cook College and Theological School is an ecumenical Christian institution with historical ties to the Presbyterian Church (USA). The College exists to educate, prepare, and equip Native Americans and others whose voices have not been heard and who hav e been educationally, socially, or economically deprived of access to higher education.

A work study program provides students with the greatly needed opportunity of earning while learning. Nearly 90% of the College's annual income in support of its students is received from individuals, groups, congregations, denominations and foundation s.

Cook College is located in Tempe, Arizona. Almost three-quarters of Native American ordained clergy have been students at Cook College, which is a member of the Native American Theological Education Consortium, in the United States.
