Thanks to the incredible generosity of our donors, FACE established an Endowment Fund in December of 2024. This fund will ensure we can continue our vital work of helping pets and their families for generations to come. By investing donations and using the earnings, the Endowment Fund provides ongoing support beyond our yearly operating budget. This essentially allows donors to make a larger one-time gift that continues to give year after year, like a permanent annual donation. This is particularly appealing to donors who want to establish a lasting legacy of support for FACE.
From the organization's perspective, the endowment fund provides financial stability and allows FACE to plan for the future, fund specific programs, and expand its reach. Contributions to the FACE Endowment Fund can be made in various ways, including cash, stocks, donor-advised funds, bequests/planned gifts, real estate, and life insurance beneficiary designations, and even retirement plan assets. Each method offers different tax benefits, so it's important to consult with financial advisors to determine the most advantageous approach. Regardless of the method, supporting the endowment fund is a powerful way to make a lasting difference in the lives of animals and the families who love them.
Join us in building a future where no pet suffers due to financial hardship. Please make a gift today or contact us to explore how your legacy can save lives.
