An endowment fund is a donation which is invested by Ronald McDonald House Charities, Upper Midwest. Its principal remains intact, while the earnings support our charitable efforts. The fund can be directed to support specific activities (such as operating support for our house) or to preserve a program (such as the School). Gifts of any size are added to the endowment. Named Endowment Funds Gifts of at least $10,000 can be named in honor of the donor or in memory of another special person. The principle is retained for future generations, and a percentage is spent according to your wishes. Additional gifts for anniversaries and special occasions help the endowment to grow and meet the demands of families far into the future.
