Nonprofit Funds These funds have been established directly by Vermont 501(c)(3) charitable organizations and municipal entities to provide ongoing annual support for their programs and operations. There are two types of nonprofit funds at the Foundation: an Endowment Fund designed for nonprofit organizations that want to protect medium- to long-term assets while receiving relatively even annual distributions, and a Reserve Fund designed for organizations that want the same qualities as an Endowment Fund, but also desire the flexibility of access to the full balance of the fund. There are many advantages to having the Foundation steward a nonprofit fund, such as professional investment management, administrative support, and financial record keeping.
