You Can Have A Positive Impact On Children's Beliefs and Values
Support the 21st Century Fund
An Endowment for Cabrini Students
You can be a part of a community of believers committed to the next generation. By doing so, you help ensure better opportunities for hundreds of young people for years to come.
The 21st Century Fund is a perpetual trust established in 1978. Formed as a Washington non-profit corporation, the Fund provides a long term financial base to ensure and enhance Catholic elementary education at St. Frances Cabrini School.
Contributions to the Endowment Fund are treated differently from other contributions to Cabrini School. These gifts are not spent on immediate needs. Rather, funds are placed in an investment trust. It is the earnings of the Fund's investments that do the good works --
- Help make Catholic education at Cabrini School affordable to families needing financial aid
- Contribute funding to improve academic programs and technology
- Provide funds for facilities upgrades to insure a safe and secure learning environment
The 21st Century Endowment Fund welcomes your gift, be it in the form of cash, stock, life insurance, annuities, real estate, mutual funds and personal property. In that the Fund is a qualified 503(c), all contributions to it are tax deductible at market value (we suggest you consult your tax advisor for guidance).
- Create a living memorial for a loved one. The Fund's Named Endowments enable family and friends to create, and build over time, perpetual remembrance -- one that in turn gives life to others. Note: please contact our Development Office (253-584-5748) regarding minimum funding requirements for this program.
- Honor a special occasion: birthday, graduation, anniversary or retirement. Gifts of any amount to the Fund are a great way to both acknowledge today's event and tomorrow's future.
- Appreciation for Blessings. The Endowment Fund is an excellent way to "give back."
Named Endowments
Our Named Endowment program currently honors nine individuals who recognized the value of a Cabrini education and are/were committed to making it available to more students. An additional two funds have been organized with the goal named endowments.
