The principle of operation of endowment funds is similar to a deposit account: the fund collects funds from the voluntary contributions of interested parties; these funds collected by the fund (the fund's capital) are never spent, but are invested (for example, placed in a deposit account), and only the interest received from the investment is spent on the needs of the beneficiary organization.
