AMWA Endowment Fund

The AMWA Endowment Fund was created in 2004 as a self-sustaining source of revenue to develop new member benefits and services.

You can help guarantee that AMWA will benefit members for years to come by making a contribution today and by naming AMWA as a beneficiary in your will or living trust. AMWA is recognized by the IRS as 501(c) (3) organization and contributions are tax deductible in the United States as a charitable donation.

Thanks to our generous members, the endowment fund continues to fund services consistent with AMWA's mission that will benefit the entire membership.

• The Endowment Fund is permanent and self-perpetuating.
• Interest from the Endowment Fund will provide a permanent source of income for AMWA to use on additional member benefits and services.

How will the money be spent?

• Only interest from the fund will be spent. The intent is to continue increasing the principal amount each year so that the endowment will continue to grow.
• Spending of interest from the Endowment Fund is considered annually and projects are approved by the AMWA Board of Directors to apply the earnings to activities consistent with AMWA's mission that will benefit the entire membership.
• Interest from the fund will be used to expand AMWA's educational offerings by, for example, developing self-study workshops, bringing speakers to the annual conference, or setting up student scholarship programs, or by funding member benefits such as MDConsult.
