It is a place where the power of television and radio are used to support our best instincts, a place where the love of learning can be shared for a lifetime. When other funding sources are becoming less and less secure, growing our endowment will provide a secure funding stream that will allow us to engage the minds and enrich the lives of the people of our community.
Endowment funds contribute annual operating income to the organization forever.
All income supports programs and services of Maine Public Broadcasting. Any remaining income will be reinvested and added to the principal in order to keep the endowment funds growing. All Endowment funds are invested in low cost, no-load indexed funds. The Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees reviews these investments regularly in order to maintain the safety of the funds. Any major changes to investment philosophies will be brought before the Board or their designated committee for approval.
