ENDOWMENT GIFTS
--James E. West Fellowship--

Gifts to your Colonial Virginia Council endowment allow us to grow our financial resources so that we can serve local scouts for many years to come.  
​
​An endowment works by utilizing a percentage of the annual interest earned on all endowed assets as a means to help fund the operating costs of your Council, special projects which may have been designated by a donor, or other means to support local Scouting.

All donors are encouraged to make a gift to the Council Endowment on top of their annual gift at least once, to help ensure the longevity and memory of their support.

Any donor which makes a gift of at least $1,000 to their Council Endowment are recognized as James E. West Fellows and may be further recognized based upon the level of their gift.
