"I donate to the Migrant Health Promotion Endowment Fund because I have seen first hand how Promotora programs benefit the farmworker community, and I want that work to continue for many years to come."
-Mike DuRussel, Owner, DuRussel's Potato Farms, Manchester, MI
To serve farmworkers and their communities for generations to come, Migrant Health Promotion created an Endowment Fund with the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation. You can donate now using Network for Good. Please specify "Migrant Health Promotion Endowment Fund" under designation.
How does it work?
Community foundations provide a variety of services, including assistance to build strong nonprofits. The Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation pools money on behalf of area nonprofits and invests the funds. The Foundation also helps nonprofits accept gifts such as property, stock or other bequests. Migrant Health Promotion has created an Endowment Fund with the Foundation. The Foundation invests money from the Fund on Migrant Health Promotion's behalf; Migrant Health Promotion reinvests the revenue or spends it where it is most needed.
The Endowment Fund:
- Allows Michigan residents and businesses to take a special tax credit when they donate to Migrant Health Promotion
- Increases Migrant Health Promotion's visibility to donors, as part of the Ann Arbor Area Community Foundation's annual reports and publications
- Gives Migrant Health Promotion the opportunity to accept planned gifts, stocks and real estate
- Generates unrestricted revenue, which Migrant Health Promotion spends where and when it is most needed
- Increases earning power by pooling investments with other nonprofit organizations
- Secures the financial stability of our organization for years to come!
Invest in the future! Help Migrant Health Promotion ensure that farmworkers and their communities have access to health information and care today and tomorrow.
