LEGACY GIVING: ENDOWMENT FUND

Larger contributions might be well suited to legacy giving through the Salt Spring Arts Council Endowment Fund managed by the Salt Spring Island Foundation.

The SSAC Endowment Fund is suitable for donors that would like to make a larger donation with a lasting impact. Dividends from the Fund support the programs and operations of SSA.

The Fund was initiated with a generous donation from Janet Halliwell, a former board member, Arts Council alumna, and long-term supporter. In launching this Fund, Janet commented:

“I am continually impressed by the dynamism and impact of the SSAC programs. From Art Jam, through youth oriented programming like Artist in the Class to SSNAP, the SSAC programs provide rich cultural benefit to all parts of our community. At the same time, I am enormously sensitive to the challenge of ensuring the sustainability of these programs through external grants. I encourage others to contribute to this Fund and through it the cultural health of Salt Spring.”
