4 STEPS TO AN AGENCY ENDOWED FUND

- WYCF works with you to complete a fund agreement.
- The fund is set up in your nonprofit’s name, giving you guaranteed income forever.
- Funds and donations are permanently invested to support you in the long term.
OTHER BENEFITS TO YOUR NONPROFIT
- You or your donors can add to the fund at any time. WYCF staff can assist with gift acceptance and answer any questions about giving.
- Your organization will have access to resources available exclusively for our Agency Endowed Fund partners via our Endowment Toolkit. Materials and expertise in the Toolkit can help you advance your endowment fundraising strategy.
- A guaranteed 4% payout is made each year for your organization’s use: there is no need to apply for funds!
- We handle all of the administrative details, including investment management, in partnership with Mason Investment Advisory Services, Inc..
