Endowment Fund

Endowment funds are intended to be kept permanently and invested to provide income for continued support of an organization. They are valuable funding tools for charitable nonprofit institutions. Endowment funds grow and provide annual income insuring the future of the Ordway. Especially in uncertain economic conditions, an endowment offers stability and security.

With your support through endowment funds, you set the stage at the Ordway for future generations to come. Your gift to the endowment fund will allow Ordway Center for the Performing Arts to:

  • Maintain the quality of our venue, including the stage, acoustics, and public areas;
  • Remain a home to the Arts Partners: The Minnesota Opera, The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, and The Schubert Club;
  • Create opportunities to grow artistically by providing access to the finest artists in the world;
  • Maintain and expand our critically-acclaimed Education at Ordway program, which has made Ordway the #1 cultural destination for Saint Paul and Minneapolis Public Schools since 1997.

To contribute to the Ordway’s endowment, please contact Peggie Van Wychen, Director of Development, at 651.282.3002 or pvanwychen@ordway.org.

The Ordway is a nonprofit organization that relies on your support.
