Many donors choose to establish or contribute to an endowed fund, creating a lasting legacy. The income from the endowment provides ongoing support to the donor's chosen priority. Endowment giving is a financial bedrock that provides both stability and flexibility for the Hospital. Norwalk Hospital invests endowed funds and uses a portion of the income for the purpose the donor specifies, while the remainder is reinvested in the fund to keep pace with inflation.
Endowed funds can be unrestricted or designated for a specific purpose and may be named for the donor and/or someone a donor wishes to honor or memorialize. Endowment funds can be created with a minimum gift of $100,000.
