About the fund

How the Endowment works.

The Permanent Endowment Fund of FCM (the “FCM Endowment”) is a professionally managed fund that exists to financially support the activities and missions of FCM. It enables FCM members, organizations and friends to express their commitment to Christ through gifts that support, in perpetuity, the inclusive and ecumenical missions and programs of FCM.

The FCM Endowment Committee oversees and manages the fund. The Committee is made up of active FCM members, with a Chairperson and Secretary selected by and from its members. Each year it reports the accumulated appreciation available for distribution, and the Circle of Directors decides how distributions are used, in accordance with the Endowment Fund Policy.

Gifts to the fund may include
  • Liquid gifts: cash and marketable securities.
  • Non-liquid gifts: real estate, art, gems and the like.
  • Deferred gifts: life insurance, gifts by will or trust, charitable gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts.
