Use of Endowment Funds

As of January 31, 2020, the balance in our General (Unrestricted) Account with the Diocese of Olympia Master Trust was approximately $331,000. It was reduced by $40,000 in December 2019 and $80,000 in January 2020 and applied to our architects’, contractors’, and consultant’s fees and expenses to-date for their work to replace our sanctuary roof, undertake related structural repairs, and prepare for our upcoming capital campaign.

We expect to incur significant additional expenses related to our buildings and grounds, including repairing cracks in the sidewalk, mold and asbestos remediation, and the requirement to add sprinklers, fire alarms, and enhanced bathroom lighting in the area occupied by the Olympia Community School. We anticipate these to be capital expenses, payable from our Capital Campaign Account and funded by additional withdrawals as needed from our General Account. We intend to reimburse the General Account with interest from funds raised in our capital campaign.
