Thats great, but if I donate $100, for example, how much of that actually goes to the Foundations mission – i.e., the SGF Summer Camp Scholarship Program?
Steve’s legacy is one of honesty, altruism and compassion. We honor his values in many ways, one of which is by handling donor dollars with the utmost of integrity. SGF Trustees cover every penny of SGF’s administrative and overhead expenses (and much more) out of their own personal contributions. Therefore, 100% of donations go to support programs. In addition, a portion of SGF’s funds are invested in a diversified, financially conservative and rigorously monitored manner (note: we do not allow investments in tobacco or firearms-related companies). SGF Trustees confer regularly (sometimes several times per week) to discuss and fine-tune the Foundation’s investment portfolio. Every $1.00 donated to SGF generates approximately $1.04 in funds that support the Foundation’s mission. We take our fiduciary responsibilities very seriously and are proud of how we handle donor contributions, and of the results we have achieved.
