CC General Operations:

  1. At present, the Creation Community operates independently from the proposed Endowment Fund. Like Bezalel, our volunteers work with donated materials.

  2. This mode of operation shall continue until offerings to the endowment's seed capital reaches the required minumum of $10,000.

  3. After the seed capital reaches $10,000, an annual dispersement of 10% of the accumulated interest begins.

  4. The fund shall be established with The Vancouver Foundation, and managed by them. The Vancouver Foundation directly receives your donations on our behalf. They directly deliver your charity receipts, and prepare public annual reports.

  5. Meanwhile, we work in faith, according to the Vision Statement.

    • You may also donate your offering to general Operations, with a stipulation stating how you wish the funds to be dispersed: a percentage to the seed fund capital, and a percentage to daily operations.

  2. If you donate $10,000 or more, you may NAME a fund, dedicated to a purpose within the mandate of our Vision Statement. For example, you could foster funds that explicitly:
