Support for the Future

Endowment Giving at Pennsylvania Chautauqua

Endowment contributions are invested, with a portion of the earnings used each year to support Chautauqua’s mission.

This approach creates a permanent source of funding—allowing your gift to have an impact not just today, but well into the future.

A generous matching gift from Chris and Mary Ellen Kiehne is available for endowment contributions.

Eligible gifts may be matched, up to established limits—helping extend the long-term impact of your support.
