View My GuideAn endowment gift to the Chi Omega Foundation today provides a brighter picture for Chi Omega's future. When you make a donation to our endowment, you give a gift with both immediate and long-term benefits.
Endowment donations are invested. A portion of the annual income from the investment is used to address Chi Omega's immediate needs. The remaining funds are reinvested to ensure sustained support for Chi Omega.
An Example of How It Works
Longtime supporters Susan and Charlie have two goals: First, they want to make sure Chi Omega continues to receive support after they're gone. Second, they want to memorialize Susan's mother.
Susan and Charlie decide to make a $25,000 donation to the Chi Omega Foundation, which is then invested. Thanks to their gift, each year a portion of the income from the invested money is used to support Chi Omega's mission, while also honoring Susan's mother through their contribution. Plus, Susan and Charlie qualify for a federal income tax charitable deduction on their taxes.
