Administrative & Investment Fees
The chart below explains the administrative and investment fees applicable to the various types of funds at the Foundation.
Administrative fees are calculated on the principal balance of each endowment using a 16-quarter trailing average and are charged directly to the endowment. They support our work in the community, including such things as our Initiative for Nonprofit Excellence.
Investment fees cover the services of our investment managers, who are selected by our investment committee and board. Investment returns are net of investment fees.
