The Westminster Endowment Foundation was founded February 14, 1972.

The Foundation is an organization designed to receive, manage and disburse funds exclusively for religious, educational or charitable purposes.  These funds are above and beyond, and separate from, the normal operating budget of Westminster Presbyterian Church.

By supporting the Foundation, you have the opportunity to enhance the work of Westminster Presbyterian Church.  Your gift provides the necessary funds to address areas of greatest need and opportunity.

Caring Christians who are active members of Westminster Presbyterian Church administer your gift.  This group is called the Westminster Endowment Foundation Committee and is elected by the session of our church.

The Endowment is divided into four separate funds:

- The Endowment Fund

- The Fern Gray Educational Loan Fund

- The Mr. & Mrs. Charles W. Shirey Fund

- The Memorial Fund

Gifts to the Foundation are wisely invested through a commercial trust department, where the funds are reinvested and allowed to accrue income.  Funds are distributed by the Foundation as the needs and opportunities arise.

How to Contribute to the Foundation

You may express your gratitude to God for the possessions He has entrusted to you by providing that a substantial portion of your capital assets are devoted to His work through:

1.  Gifts for immediate use

2.  A bequest in your Will

3.  A gift of life insurance
