Wilderness Watch’s Endowment is a permanent fund set up to receive contributions, which are invested to generate a steady income. Wilderness Watch leaves the principal intact, using the interest and dividends to pursue our organization’s mission. An endowment is built for the long-term, and, like Wilderness itself, it’s a way to measure an organization’s strength and character. Contributing to the endowment creates an investment fund that will generate interest income for us every year, creating stability for our organization and potential tax benefits for our donors. A gift to the endowment is a gift to Wilderness Watch and to Wilderness forever.
