Reserve Fund

OCMS has established a Reserve Fund to support the longevity and financial security of our organization.  Donors may take advantage of customary charitable donation tax deductions, and may also be able to mitigate accumulated capital gains of existing investments.  The Reserve Fund is set up to be able to receive donations in many forms, including equities, bonds and other assets. 

• The Reserve Fund is invested in low-expense equities, index funds and cash

• Lead gifts and investment returns have the Fund currently valued at over $70,000

• The Fund is separate from our general operating funds, and may only be accessed through  recommendation of our Finance Committee and vote of our Board of Directors

• We envision being able to allocate earnings from the Fund for special projects and initiatives in our community

• While not a formal endowment, the corpus of the Fund may not be accessed, similar to an endowment
