Honor and Memorial Gifts

Leave an Endowment for BHCFL! Central Florida Foundation can assist you with setting it up just for us!

  1. An endowment fund is defined as a single or combined pool of assets gifted to Black Homeschoolers of Central Florida as a permanent, self-sustaining source of funding to provide resources for various activities consistent with the strategic plan of BHCFL.

    1. Permanent Endowment funds are those in which the principal amount must remain inviolate in perpetuity. Either the entire or the partial income from investment is made available for distribution.

Endowment assets are invested: Each year, a portion of the value of the fund is paid out to support the fund’s purpose, and any earnings in excess of this distribution are used to build the fund’s market value.
