Help the Living Opportunities Endowment Tree Grow
The future of Living Opportunities will be assured with your gift to the Endowment Fund. An endowment fund is a special fund that provides a “payout” every year to support the mission of Living Opportunities. The corpus, or principal, of the endowment is kept intact, and only the interest, or a portion of it, it available for use.
Endowment gifts may be made during a person’s life or at death through a will or trust. Some donors combine the two, making a gift during their lifetime, and then adding to it with a bequest.
Endowment gifts are like sunlight and water to the long-lasting growth of Living Opportunities. Your gift to the Endowment Fund will live forever; helping to fulfill our mission and promise to the community we serve.
If you have already remembered Living Opportunities in your will, please let us know so that we can include you in the activities of our Giving Society. If you would like further information about charitable gift planning, transfer of stocks or other appreciated property, or creating a charitable annuity or trust, please contact Jim Norris at 541-772-1503.
Gifts to the Endowment Fund may be made in any amount. You are welcome to make a gift in honor of a friend or loved one.
The Opportunity Tree will honor all those who have made gifts of $5,000 to the Living Opportunities Endowment Fund. Your name or the name of someone you wish to honor will be included on a copper leaf of this beautifully sculpted tree.
Our staff are happy to discuss with you the many ways that you can participate in the Living Opportunities Endowment Fund, managed and administered by the Oregon Community Foundation

“We are humbled and amazed at the impact that Living Opportunities has on individuals and families. Living Opportunities offers support, services, and an opportunity for independence to many of the most vulnerable and fragile members of Jackson County.”
“We have included a bequest to Living Opportunities in our estate plan because Living Opportunities has demonstrated its compassion, high level of service, steady and strong leadership, and vision for future generations. We believe that our bequest will support that vision, mission, and service.”
“We urge others to join us in creating a strong, viable, and responsible future for Living Opportunities through a bequest or generous gift to the endowment fund.”
