LEAVE A LEGACY! 

You've raised your family here.

Your business has prospered.

The High Desert Endowment Fund
is a great way to support the
community you love ...

For good.  For ever.

In response to needs of the growing High Desert community, High Desert Resource Network established The High Desert Endowment Fund at The Community Foundation.  Contributions to the fund will be used exclusively to support and strengthen community benefit organizations serving the High Desert.

ABOUT THE FUND

All gift principals contributed to The High Desert Endowment Fund are retained in perpetuity and only a portion of the earned interest is expended each year for charitable purposes.  Established with an initial gift from Hi-Desert Mental Health, The Fund will benefit a wide array of causes, schools, and ministries vital to our community.

Gifts to The High Desert Endowment Fund provide an easy way to leave a legacy to the community you love!  Establishing and managing a family foundation can be time consuming and costly.  Donors to The Fund can be assured that their gifts will live on and have maximum impact under the professional management and oversight of The Community Foundation Board of Directors.  Staff can provide you with naming options related to your gifts.

See Page 8 of The Community Foundation Annual Report for further information.
