Make your contribution to the life of the community.  

What we do for you . . .

• Help you choose your way of giving. The Ethiopian Heritage Foundation is here to assist you in choosing and implementing your way of giving to the community, based on what you see as the causes, organizations, or community areas which need to be developed.
• Help you establish your personal endowment fund. A personal endowment fund is your custom-made vehicle for giving. When you feel strongly about a particular cause, organization, or the community at large, and want to support it, an endowment fund is a personalized gift that lasts forever. Each year, for generations to come, the annual income earned from your fund will be directed according to your wishes.
• The Foundation will prepare any necessary paperwork to ensure that your philanthropic wishes are met. We encourage you to discuss any such document with your own legal advisor.
• Invest the money. The Investment Committee of the Foundation ensures that the capital is invested in such a way that the distribution capacity of each gift is maximized. The committee invests the funds in a diversified and balanced portfolio of bonds and equities under the policy direction of our Board. (This program is under development.)
• Provide a tax-deductible receipt for every gift.
• List your fund in perpetuity in our Annual Report.
