Endowment Fund and Legacy Gifts
Let your passion for our faith community inspire you to fund our future.
The Tree of Life Endowment Fund trustees will ensure the Endowment Fund is a safe, well-managed account and will encourage members of our faith community to promise a legacy gift and thereby generate a perpetual stream of income to positively impact the future well-being of the Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation.
You don’t have to be a millionaire to make a difference in the world.
If you intend to demonstrate your commitment to our faith community and the strong values and moral teachings of the seven Principles of Unitarian Universalism, consider making a gift to The Tree of Life Endowment Fund.
We want to make the process easy for you, because your gift will make a difference.

Write a check to “The Tree of Life Endowment Fund” and place it in the offering bowl any Sunday morning or mail it to the church office.
