Endowment Giving

Leave a Legacy With VOBS

With the help of our visionary donors, we are building a robust endowment to sustain VOBS for years to come. Endowment funds are permanently restricted dollars that provide interest income to support scholarships, operations and programs in perpetuity.

VOBS currently has a partnership with the David and Janis Larson Family Foundation to support our endowment growth. The Larson Foundation will match any contribution to our endowment funds, up to $1M a year.

Current Endowment Funds include:

VOBS Legacy Scholarship Endowment
David and Janis Larson Family Leadership Scholarship Endowment
Mark M. Moeller Scholarship Endowment
VOBS Operations Endowment

To contribute to an existing endowment fund, please contact VOBS. We welcome inquiries about creating new endowments, which can be started with a minimum investment and designated for a specific purpose mutually agreed upon by the donor and VOBS.

Please contact Director of Development, Poppy Potter: poppy.potter@vobs.org or (651) 401-0637 to discuss an endowment gift.

There is more in us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less.
