Below is a list of supplies that we use regularly at CYC and by contributing any of these items, you are helping us save cash to use for programming. The next time you are a store, simply put a few items in your cart and drop them at CYC.

Funeral Memorial
Cornerstone is blessed to have been listed as a memorial for many past donors who wanted to continue their support after their passing. Please consider listing CYC as a memorial in your pre-planning, for a loved one or choose us when a donors choice is offered by the family.
Endowment Gift
Through the generosity of many past donors, we have been able to start the Cornerstone Youth Development Fund as an endowment for our mission. This endowment will ensure that we are able to continue an endless stream of funds into CYC in future years. The growth of this fund is imperative to the continuation of our mission and serving youth in Southeast Allen County. While the fund is around $20,000 in value right now, growing this fund for future years will allow the principle to be invested while we are able to use the growth for operating support or special projects. The fund is managed by the Community Foundation of Greater Fort Wayne. We chose them as the manager of the fund because they offer annual matches to any gift contributed. For 2011, all donations will be matched 20% by the foundation. You can send your donation to CYC or directly to the Community Foundation. For a donation form to give to this fund, click here.
Legacy Gift – Will or Bequest
A legacy gift is a gift that will keep on giving long after you make the donation. A legacy gift can be a simple cash gift that could be invested into the endowment fund, a donation left in your will for a specific purpose, a charitable gift annuity which allows you to live on the money invested now with the balance of the fund being given to Cornerstone at upon death, or by giving stock, land or commodities. Any of these gifts will be greatly remembered.
