Legacy Endowment Fund
Our personal legacies are often difficult to fathom and even harder to measure. If we pause to consider our life’s work and impact on the industry, employees and even friends or family - it’s hard to know how far our influence will reach.
Some among us are more intentional about building a lasting legacy. These thoughtful and passionate donors invest in that which is important to them and give of their time, their wisdom, and their resources. For those investors who believe strongly in the mission of the SC&RF, a donation to the Legacy Endowment Fund is particularly rewarding. A gift of endowment is a gift that lasts. It is, by design, a gift that creates a permanent source of support for the mission that will be there long after the giver is gone.
The SC&RF Legacy Endowment Fund was created in 2023 allowing families the opportunity to create a lasting memorial to their loved one while giving to the area of greatest need or passion.
Giving to a Legacy Endowment may be a popular option for companies and individuals in the industry looking to ensure that programs they have helped to shape and grow continue to receive an appropriate level of funding now and in the future. Some of our donors may choose to build endowment funds by contributing gifts during their lifetime – as a single gift, multiple gifts over a period of years, or a combination of outright and estate gifts.
