BCO has been supported through an endowment fund at the Baltimore Community Foundation that was created to provide a reliable source of funding to sustain the company’s mission and programs over time and provide our donors with more ways to to give. The endowment is a permanent fund invested by BCF to generate income to support BCO’s mission in perpetuity.
Our donors have told us they were motivated to support us through the endowment for some of the following reasons:
STABILITY
BCO’s endowment provides a reliable, stable source of funding that is not dependent on the ups and downs of the economy or fluctuations in the stock market.
IMPACT
Donations to BCO’s endowment will support our mission to share world-class performances with Baltimore audiences for years to come.
TAX BENEFITS
Donations to BCO’s endowment are tax-deductible, which means you can support us while also receiving a tax benefit.
SHARED VALUES
BCO’s values align with many of our donors’ philanthropic goals which gives them confidence BCO will honor their legacies. Consider speaking with a financial advisor or tax professional to learn more about the tax benefits of donating to the Orchestra’s endowment fund.
