Endowment Funds
Endowment Funds are funds setup for a specific purpose from which disbursements are made entirely from the accrued interest. By only disbursing the interest, the fund's principal remains intact, effectively allowing the fund to exist in perpetuity once it is fully endowed. In some instances, minimal disbursements can be made from an endowment fund before it reaches its full endowment level.
