Endowments

What is an endowment?

An endowment is a permanent charitable fund designed to provide support now and for generations to come.

When you establish or contribute to an endowment, your gift is invested for long-term growth. Each year, only a portion of the fund’s earnings is used to provide grants, scholarships, or other charitable support, while the principal remains intact. This allows your generosity to continue making an impact well into the future.

Endowments are a meaningful way to create a lasting legacy, support the causes you care about, and help strengthen our community for generations.
