Endowment Fund

The Catholic Community Foundation manages and invests our funds, paying interest on our Endowment Fund once a year.  The principal amount invested will stay in the fund untouched; the interest may be used for various parish needs.  The committee is appointed by the Pastor and directs the operations of the fund, assisting in decision making regarding fund disbursements.  The types of "Endowment Gifts" that are generally given are stocks, funds from real estate, wills, insurance, direct deposits, checks, or a gift in the name of a loved one.
