What is an endowment?

An endowment is a fund invested to provide long-term support for a nonprofit organization or cause. It is a donation of money, stock, or property to a non-profit organization, which uses the resulting investment income for a specific purpose, like augmenting operations with nonrestricted funds and funding special projects.
