The Endowment Fund

The Second Presbyterian Church Endowment Fund was established in 1923 by forward thinking members of the Congregation to “continue and maintain a permanent fund… to carry on the religious and charitable work of the Church.” An elected board of Second members oversees the professional management of the Endowment’s assets, and ensures that the Fund continues to flourish to meet the growing needs of the building, congregation, and community.

Each year the Endowment supports the Second’s annual budget through distributions that provide for building and operational expenses, and funding for many programs including Lake Fellows, Footsteps of Faith, CenterPoint Counseling, Music and Fine Arts, the Don and Karen Lake Buttrey Northside Food Pantry, mission and education programs.

Supporting the Endowment Fund by making an outright gift, or by including a gift to Second in your estate plans, helps ensure Second’s support for the Congregation and service to the community continues for years to come.
