Our Portfolio
As stewards of the BCBC endowment, we are proud of our successful portfolio management track record that has allowed us to award over $2,800,000 in grants to deserving recipients. Moreover, our disciplined adherence to a risk-managed investment approach has not only protected our capital from depletion, but it has allowed the endowment to meaningfully appreciate in value, thereby helping ensure an impactful legacy for years to come.
Donations come through attorneys working with estates, wills, and trusts; from corporations interested in contributing to a long-established organization that provides funding for the local special needs in the local community; and from individuals who we have crossed paths with at some point in their lives and who believe in our mission.
If you are considering making a financial contribution to the Boston Center for Blind Children, please know that we remain unwavering in our continued commitment to our fiduciary responsibilities for managing and growing the endowment. As such, we hope that you will share in our enthusiasm and confidence that any donation you make today will provide meaningful support to the visually impaired community for years to come.
