Endowment Funds

An endowment fund is an ever-lasting way to honor or memorialize an individual or family. A minimum gift of $10,000 will establish an endowment fund with the Independent Catholic Foundation. A minimum $3,000 gift will establish an endowment with the Community Foundation for the Alleghenies. The interest generated from the invested fund is distributed as designated and the principle remains in the endowment earning interest. This type of fund will be a perpetual commemoration to its namesake.

If you have questions or would like to establish an endowment fund, contact Jeanne Feathers, Director of Marketing and Communication, at (814)248-3885 or [email protected].
