The Fulcrum Central Endowment provides significant and stable financial support for our mission and core programs. The principal investment in the Endowment is held in perpetuity, and with wise stewardship and sound investing, the interest earned on these funds generates support for our programs on an annual basis. There are many naming opportunities for individual donors, families, or foundations—your named endowment gift may be unrestricted or designated to a particular program (e.g., tuition assistance) or even a region of the Archdiocese.

For more information about giving to the Fulcrum Central Endowment, please contact Senior Advancement Director Amy Hall at 206.748.7989 or advancementdirector@fulcrumfoundation.org.

Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Seattle have over $40 million dollars in endowment invested through the Fulcrum Foundation.

Legacy gifts play an integral part in the Fulcrum Foundation’s ability to maintain and broaden its support of our Catholic schools for generations to come. The goals of the Fulcrum Legacy Society are to honor those who have included gifts to the Fulcrum Foundation in their estate plans, encourage others to consider a legacy gift and serve as a resource for those interested in planning a gift. We hope that you’ll consider becoming a member of our Legacy Society.
