Endowment Fund
Endowed funds provide a stable source of revenue for a charity's future. Because the principle is never spent and a portion of interest is reinvested, the fund can continue to grow. This brings meaningful support for an agency year after year.
The Endowment Fund was created in 1984. It is a permanent fund managed
by Lower Cape Fear Hospice Foundation trustees
to provide a perpetual source of income for essential agency programs
and services. Financial contributions to the fund are invested and
never spent. The interest earned is used to support the nonprofit,
mission-driven activities Lower Cape Fear Hospice & LifeCareCenter
offers-hospice care, palliative care, end-of-life education, bereavement
and grief counseling for all ages-all of which run at a deficit and
depend on charitable contributions to continue.
One can contribute to the Endowment Fund in a variety of ways. Most donors prefer cash gifts and pledges. Friends, loved ones, and colleagues may be memorialized or honored by making a tribute in their name. Donors who give $100 or more join the Lower Cape Fear Hospice & LifeCareCenter Circles of Caring. Individuals who include Lower Cape Fear Hospice Foundation Endowment Fund in their will, trust, or estate plan become members of Lower Cape Fear Hospice Foundation's prestigious Sandy Morgan Legacy Society.
Leadership Gifts
For more than a quarter century, Lower Cape Fear Hospice & LifeCareCenter's ability to remain strong and grow has depended on the generosity, foresight, and dedication of donors who believe in its mission. Leadership gifts are contributions of $10,000 or more. They help build a strong financial base that provides lasting support for the agency's programs and services. Leadership contributors become members of the Chrysalis, Monarch, or Dame Cicely Saunders societies. They are recognized as dedicated and generous supporters whose leadership, service, and devotion to Lower Cape Fear Hospice & LifeCareCenter have inspired them to give.
Naming Opportunities
With a minimum gift of
$25,000, you may create a "named fund" restricted to a specific purpose.
These could include the Hospice Care Center, assorted equipment, education,
palliative care services, bereavement support groups, children's grief
camps, or for programs in a specific portion of the Lower Cape Fear
Hospice & LifeCareCenter service area. Benefits of creating a naming
opportunity include making a lasting contribution, recognition for
you and/or your company, and becoming a Monarch Society member.
