Building a Better World
The PCEI Board of Directors established the Endowment Trust Fund in 2000
to demonstrate PCEI’s ongoing commitment to our community. The Endowment
allows donors a tangible way to express their commitment to PCEI’s
mission into the future. The PCEI Endowment is an open account composed
of gifts of cash, stocks and bonds, and life insurance, held in
perpetuity for permanent use by PCEI.
Gifts to the PCEI Endowment are investments in our community’s future.
The Endowment portfolio is managed by the PCEI board in consultation
with a financial advisor who monitors the performance of socially
responsible funds. A portion of the income generated by the portfolio
supports PCEI projects each year.
A gift to the PCEI Endowment endorses this organization’s commitment to
our values of
connecting people, place and community. Your gift will help the
Palouse-Clearwater
Environmental Institute:
- Protect local ecosystems
- Educate children and adults about environmental issues
- Design effective solutions to local issues
