Endowments are permanent funds in which the principal is held in perpetuity and only the investment income is expended annually (payout).
Endowment gifts provide long-term sources of funding for the Arizona Public Media. Endowed funds support activities not just for one year, or even one generation, but forever. Endowment funds are invested prudently to ensure they can sustain current and future needs.
An endowed fund is established through a minimum gift of cash or stock totaling $25,000. Endowed funds also may be created through a number of gift planning vehicles.
Endowments can be very specifically focused or they can be generally designated for the most critical needs.
An endowment can be named in honor of an individual, colleague, or family member, as well as an organization, foundation or corporation.
