What is an Endowment?
An endowment is a permanent investment fund for Water to Thrive’s long-term security. Donor contributions make up the principle and are invested in a diversified portfolio. The portfolio is managed by Thrivent Charitable Impact & Investing and dividends are paid out at the discretion of the Board. The investment income is unrestricted, and is distributed upon advisement by the endowment committee, and approved by Water to Thrive’s Board of Directors.
