Pledge to EDGE

ENDOWMENT CAMPAIGN

What is an endowment?

An endowment fund is money invested and managed for growth to fund charitable activity. Donors gift money or stock to a nonprofit and the resulting investment income helps fund the work of the nonprofit.

 

How is the gift to the EDGE Endowment different from a donation to EDGE?

A general donation to EDGE is used for immediate operating costs and typically not invested. An endowment gift builds the managed fund that generates growth for the sustainability of EDGE.

 

How will an EDGE endowment impact Nebraska City?

An endowment of our goal of $500,000 will ensure long-term sustainability that will allow EDGE Nebraska City to meet the needs of the community for generations. The endowment will help us move the needle of poverty in Nebraska City and give ALL kids and families an edge.

When you give to EDGE, you give to the future.

If you would like to donate to the EDGE Endowment, please specify in the optional note while donating.

What Others Are Saying

The book besties program through Reader’s Edge is a fantastic gift for Nebraska City’s children. My 5-year-old would come home from pre-school on book bestie days full of excitement with a new book in hand, eager for me to read his new favorite book with him.

My students loved the days our book bestie came to read. He did such a great job building relationships with them. My students always let me know when they would see our book bestie in town!
