Adding to Your Endowment Partners Fund
As an endowment partner organization, you will want to grow your endowment and add to your OCF fund. Although some organizations successfully build their endowments by contributing a portion of annual revenues, most use fundraising efforts to support their endowment funds.
Here are some ways we work with you on endowment building:
- Donations – When your nonprofit relies on donations to grow the endowment, the raised monies are given directly to your organization and your group acknowledges the contribution. You may then choose to send the donations to OCF, which we will add to your endowment.
- Securities – Occasionally, OCF manages gifts of securities to your organization’s fund should your organization not have a securities broker. As your endowment partner, OCF works with you to coordinate the transfer and sale of the security. After receiving the security, we automatically liquidate it and the donor is acknowledged by OCF.
