HELP CREATE IMPACTFUL CHANGE
An endowment is a perpetual gift that can be designated for a specific organization or cause. The original gift remains intact, and the income is used for a charitable purpose. An endowment can be established in honor of you or your family, in memory of a loved one, or remain completely anonymous.
Do you want to make a big splash or quietly support a cause important to you? Are you interested in remembering a loved one or creating a family legacy? Looking to maximize tax advantages or create an income stream from your gift for yourself, a spouse or children? Want to involve grandchildren in philanthropy? The options are endless and we are here to help find the answers that work for you.
You can start a fund with cash, securities or real estate, or a deferred gift using a vehicle such as a trust, insurance policy or IRA. Have you thought about a bequest through your will? More about Legacy Giving.
All it takes is an idea to get started. Once your fund is set up, you are ready to start making a difference in your community! You can recommend grants to the causes you care about – creating an impact to improve the overall quality of life in your community. Your new charitable fund is the starting place for making your vision a reality.
