The Pontifical Endowment Fund began in 2016 with a check of one thousand US dollars, from a couple who believed in our dream to create a legacy that would continue to support the formation of apostles in perpetuity. Since then, the Pontifical Endowment Fund has grown slowly and modestly to over 400K USD, with a generous pledge of over € 5,000,000 and yet remains in an initial seeding phase.
Support of other immediate impact projects have limited the initial growth of the Pontifical Endowment, yet we continue to dream in a legacy we can create together, for those moved to magnanimity in this project at the top of our strategic priorities.
The Endowment Fund is designed as a strategic investment fund and will eventually be launched to enhance financial stability. A well-managed endowment provides a message of planned long-term stability, fiscal responsibility, and financial viability for the Foundation. Donations to the Endowment Fund relieve pressure on the annual funds for overheads and operational needs, thereby enabling the Foundation to grow its long-term vision of sustainable support and impact.
