What is an Endowment Gift?

How an Endowment Works

Your contribution is held as a permanent fund by The Charitable Trust of the CFUW Aurora/Newmarket.

The principal remains intact, while a portion of the investment income is used annually to fund awards.

Because the principal is never spent, your gift continues to support students year after year, forever.
