Our President, Jessie Olson, and Secretary, Stella Caughell, met with the North Valley Community Foundation today to discuss setting up an endowment and a scholarship. Here's what we learned:
1) We can begin a foundation for our various initiatives and our scholarship for as little as $50.
2) They only charge 2% to manage our foundation or scholarship.
3) We can earmark funds, leave funds in a general fund or do both.
4) We may be eligible for grants to fund some of our initiatives through this organization and others.
5) We will be able to accept real estate, insurance, and other large donations through this vehicle.
6) They offer insurance for special events.
7) They are super awesome about working with Pagans.
8) We can participate in their fundraising programs, including their annual fund drives.
9) This will lend a lot of credibility and legitimacy to our cause and help us make Paganism a more mainstream religion.
