An endowment is a donation invested to generate perpetual funds for a specific purpose. It is created within the AHF to support an AQPA or AHF project using income generated from the capital. The capital is generally left intact, and a percentage of the income is paid out annually for the need or program for which the endowment was created. An endowment fund can be established from direct donations, stock donations, bequests, or life insurance policies or their proceeds.

A minimum of $100,000 is required to establish an endowment fund in your name, your family's name, or in memory of a loved one. It is a way to provide ongoing support to people with aphasia.
