ENDOWMENT
After 10 years of A Slice of Hope raising joy
and optimism across the country, we decided that it was important to start
working towards an endowment so that Slice of Hope could keep thriving and
growing.
Generous supporters of Slice of Hope have
offered to sell 2-family houses in Jersey City, NJ to Slice of Hope at a
discounted rate of 33% below market prices.
These are 7 properties that would give A Slice
of Hope instant equity while also creating monthly income for Slice of Hope
that can be used to raise joy and optimism.
The houses would cost $2.1 million and have a
market value of $3 million. They would also allow us to fund more projects and
even ally with other non-profits in raising joy and optimism and creating an
environment of caring throughout the country.
Our immediate goal is to raise $100,000 so that
we can contract the houses and work towards the eventual goal of purchasing
them completely. It may even be possible
to eventually take out a mortgage to bring us ever closer to the goal.
While this endowment goal is ambitious and
crazy, in 2007, everyone thought A Slice of Hope was ambitious and crazy.
Together, we have shown that ambitious does not mean impossible. Together, we can make the endowment a
reality.
