Endowment
Many nonprofit organizations create an Agency Endowment Fund in order to maintain long-term financial stability. By definition, an endowment fund maintains gifts permanently, making earnings available to support future needs of the organization. Kalix has two endowment funds: The Kalix Agency Endowment Fund at the Minot Area Community Foundation (established 2012) and The Kalix Agency Endowment Fund at the St. Joseph’s Community Health Foundation (established 2014). Giving to either endowment fund gives donors the opportunity to take advantage of the North Dakota Legacy Tax Credit with a minimum donation of $5,000. Options to receive the Tax Credit include:
- Give to the MACF Kalix fund
- Deliver a check written to the Minot Area Community Foundation with “Kalix Agency Endowment Fund” noted in the memo
- Give online through MACF’s website (centerforcommunitygiving.com) noting the Kalix Agency Endowment Fund in the subject line.
- Give to the SJCHF fund
- Deliver a check written to the St. Joseph’s Community Health Foundation with “Kalix Endowment Fund” noted in the memo
- Give online through SJCHF’s website (sjchfnd.com) noting the Kalix Agency Endowment Fund in the subject line.
The donor will receive a receipt for the gift to assist with filing for the ND Legacy Tax Credit.
