The Island School Foundation Endowment

The Island School Foundation Endowment Fund is a permanent investment in the future of The Island School. Contributions to the Endowment are invested and preserved in perpetuity, creating a lasting source of financial support for the school.

Gifts made to the Endowment Fund are never spent. Instead, they are invested, and only the income generated from those investments is distributed each year to support The Island School. As the Endowment grows, the annual income available to the school also increases.

The Endowment Fund provides a reliable and sustainable source of long-term financial support. It helps strengthen the school's financial future and ensures that The Island School can continue serving students and the island community for generations.

Legacy giving allows donors to make a lasting impact by including The Island School Foundation in their long-term financial or estate plans. These gifts help build the Endowment and provide enduring support for future students.

There are many ways to support the Endowment Fund through legacy giving, including:

• Direct cash giving
• Bequests through your will or estate
• Charitable IRA distributions
• Gifts of appreciated stocks or other assets
• Other planned giving opportunities

No. Gifts to the Endowment Fund are invested permanently. Only the earnings from those investments are used to support The Island School, allowing your gift to continue making an impact year after year.

Your contribution helps build a stronger Endowment, which increases the annual income available to support The Island School. Every gift helps ensure the school's long-term financial strength, benefiting future generations of students.

Anyone who wants to leave a lasting legacy and invest in the future of The Island School can make an endowment gift. Whether you're an alumnus, parent, grandparent, community member, or friend of the school, your support helps secure its future.

Annual gifts provide immediate support for current needs, while endowment gifts provide permanent, long-term support. Many donors choose to do both, making annual gifts to meet today's priorities while building the Endowment to benefit future generations.
