SHERIDAN SENIOR CENTER ENDOWMENT FUND FOR
TODAY AND TOMORROW
What does an Endowment Do? Why is it Important?
With an increasing number of people getting older,
organizations that serve elders must think about how they are going to meet
their needs. Creating an Endowment is a strategy an organization can take to
become more financially independent and less reliant on the uncertainties
associated with federal and state funds.
Endowment dollars are vital because they generate income, a portion of which is
available year after year to support important programs such as daily on-site
Senior Meals in several locations, Home Delivered Meals, In-Home Services, Day
Break - Adult Day Services and Transportation. The rest of the money is wisely
invested to build the fund.

“I made an Endowment to the Sheridan Senior Center’s Day Break Program in memory of my sister Esther. She looked forward each and every day to the activities provided by the one of a kind, dedicated personnel who works there. Esther’s days at
Day Break were among the happiest as she liked to be around people. It is my hope
that the Endowment gift I made will provide income for Day Break activities for years to come.”
- Frank Rauzi
“Giving to an endowment is a very personal expression of support. It says that you believe in what the organization stands for and what it does; it says that you want the organization to be here for those who will need its services well beyond today.”
- Lynn Mavrakis
