Agency endowment funds of any size are invested with the Foundation’s pool of assets.  The Foundation’s economies of scale provide your organization the benefit of a diverse investment portfolio that typically is only available to larger accounts.  You can focus your efforts on carrying out the non-profit’s mission.  You have access to the resources when you need them.
