KUUF Endowment Fund
Did you know that KUUF has an Endowment Fund? We do!
Endowment involves the donation of money to a nonprofit (KUUF) which uses resultlng investment income for specific purposes. KUUF's Endowment Fund has its own set of bylaws which outline its oversight, investment guidelines and principles for use. The earnings of the Fund can only be used with Congregational approval. It is meant to be used for purposes/expenses outside of routine operating expenses of KUUF. Examples of its use are scholarships for UU educational opportunities for KUUF members and staff, AV equipment for the sanctuary, appliances for KUUF kitchen.
Contributing to KUUF's Endowment Fund can be done by simply writing a check to the Fund. One can also include the Fund in estate planning. Donation of stocks, mutual fund shares and other appreciated assets to the KUUF Endowment Fund may result in tax advantages for the door.
For more information on these options contact Endowment@kuuf.org.

Letter from Rev. Victoria: November 7, 2024
Dear Ones,
It’s been a long few months, and now, an outcome to the election that many of us have feared. I’ve heard justice leaders and election workers flagging this week, energies depleted. I’ve heard friends who are strong in compassion and care, feeling disheartened.
