Michelle’s Place Endowment Fund Update: Investing in the Future of Cancer Support
We are excited to share some great news and progress as we work together to reinvigorate this vital initiative. The Endowment Fund has been in place for 10 years, and thanks to the support of generous donors, it has steadily grown towards long-term sustainability for Michelle’s Place.
The Importance of the Endowment Fund
Since its inception, the Endowment Fund has played a crucial role in supporting the mission of Michelle’s Place. Securing funding for a permanent home and ensuring the ability to finance both the purchase and renovation of the space has been a top priority. As the number of clients continues to grow, with an annual increase of around 20%, the staff and dedicated volunteers at Michelle’s Place has been working diligently to meet the growing demand for services.
What is an Endowment Fund and Why Is It Important?
An endowment fund is a long-term financial strategy that functions similarly to a 401(k) or IRA. Donations and contributions made today are invested over time with the goal of generating income that will support operations in the future. This financial model ensures sustainability, allowing Michelle’s Place to continue providing invaluable support to cancer patients and their families for years to come.
By investing in an endowment fund, you’re not only helping to sustain Michelle’s Place’s operations but also ensuring that future generations will benefit from the services we provide. Endowment funds offer financial stability and peace of mind, so we can focus on what matters most: serving the community and offering support to those in need. Ensuring that No One Faces Cancer Alone.
