Leave a Legacy Through an Endowment
Through an endowment, you can leave your legacy that will continue to help the youth of tomorrow or honor loved ones and friends who have made an impact in your life. Endowments also provide stability by providing on-going support to 4-H. Over time, endowments in the 4-H Foundation have grown and provided cumulative support in excess of the initial gift that established these funds.
An endowment in your name can be created with a gift of $10,000 or more and can be made in cash, or with stocks, bonds, property, or life insurance policies. The endowment principle is preserved in an investment fund and never spent. Only the interest earned (average 5% annually) is used to support 4-H programs, and additional interest earnings help increase the value of the endowment fund through prudent management and re-investment.
Gifts of any amount may be added at any time to our existing endowment fund. Here is a list of endowments already created:
Endowments truly have an impact on Kentucky 4-H. They are the gifts that keep on giving! For more information about Endowments, please contact KeithL.Rogers@uky.edu. If you would like to donate to one of these existing endowments, please click to Donate NOW! |
