Endowment
The endowment fund is one of the best ways to ensure our council continues to offer the outstanding program it now has and also grow to meet the needs of the youth and communities that we serve. Gifts are made to the endowment fund by a donor through a charitable contribution above and beyond an annual FOS contribution. Many donors give to the endowment fund through a bequest, planned gift arrangement, or through the James E. West Fellowship, 1910 Society or Founder’s Circle. Only the interest off the endowment is used by the council. The principal is never touched; therefore, an individual's gift to endowment is permanent. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a James E. West Fellow please contact George McGovern or Crissy Humble at 770-227-4556. |
