Current Progress and Acknowledgements
As of July 2008 we have raised over $70,000 for an endowed operating fund, that not only earns interest but perpetually increase in size through the interest earned. With a projected $2 million goal to be reached in 2013, we are proud to say that we are well on our way to securing the future of our safe ride program and network. Our endowment efforts began three years ago, and in that time span, we have established our endowment and secured consistent inflows of capital to build upon, as we continue to raise awareness of, and funds for our investment.
The CARPOOL endowment was recently awarded with the Class of 2007 gift, which further evinces the support that CARPOOL has from the student body. CARPOOL continuously extends its gratitude for the trust that Texas A&M University students, friends, and family vest in us. We would also like to thank the CARPOOL Development Council, Slovacek Sausage, our Partners in Responsible Choices, and all those individuals and organizations that have helped us grow the CARPOOL endowment in such a small amount of time. However, you can still take part in helping CARPOOL reach the $2 million goal; we look to the future and appreciate your support in advance!
