Endowment Fund

What is the CHPC Endowment Fund?

CHPC is interested in proclaiming the gospel of Jesus and supporting others! The CHPC Endowment Fund is a key way that we help provide funding to organizations that are doing outreach in our community, across the country, or around the world. The Endowment Fund at College Hill Presbyterian Church was established in 1975. The principal money in this trust account is invested, and income generated by the fund is given away in the form of grants.

The Endowment Fund is managed by an independent investment company that provides annual reporting to the CHPC Trustee Administrators who are responsible for ensuring that the Fund is properly invested.

In 2024, $48,500 was distributed among 23 organizations in 8 different countries!

  • Grants allow for ministries to receive funding for special projects
  • Grants demonstrate the financial support of the CHPC body of Christ for the body of Christ around the world
  • Giving to the Endowment Fund is a special opportunity for CHPC members and friends to give to ministries around the world, today and for years to come
