Named Endowed Fund

Every year, the foundation makes grants to the most effective local nonprofit organizations

in the names of generous citizens who have established named endowment funds with Silicon Valley Community Foundation. These funds support the foundation's Community Endowment Fund, a permanent charitable resource for the region.

The income earned from named endowed funds provides the "venture capital" for long-term solutions to the challenges our community faces now and in the future. Endowed funds of $50,000 or more may be named by the donor and may carry the donor's name, establishing a permanent legacy. Named endowed funds may be established during your lifetime or created through an estate plan.

SVCF is the region's leader for innovative charitable solutions. Let us help put your vision into action.
