Endowed Scholarship Growth

The Ouimet Fund continues to seek to greatly expand its endowed scholarships. An effort is being made made at growing The Fund’s inner-city scholarship program in addition to broadening the overall endowed scholarships. Please contact Ouimet Executive Director Bob Donovan at 774-430-9090 or bobd@ouimet.org for information.

The number of scholarships and total dollars endowed with The Fund has grown greatly over the past few years. This year, $813,000 of the Ouimet Fund’s scholarships will be funded from endowed awards.

December 2018

Dear Friends and fellow Endowed Scholarship Creators, I had the good fortune seven years ago to become more heavily involved with the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund. Until then, my connection, as with many Ouimet supporters, was limited to donating annually to the Bag Tag Program through my golf club. The more I worked with The Fund’s long-time Executive Director, Bob Donovan, his staff and members of the Ouimet Board of Directors, the more I came to admire and respect the mission and success of this exceptional non-profit. The connection I developed with the organization’s Scholars, volunteers and staff inspired me to establish an Endowed Fund in honor of my parents, Audrey and D’Arcy Brent. A couple years ago, my mother, who was 94-years-old at the time, joined me at the annual “Investing in Lifetimes” Endowed Reception at Wellesley Country Club. We both had the chance to meet and speak with the young scholar who was the recipient of that year’s award from her and my dad’s fund. The expression of joy and fulfillment on my mom’s face was priceless, and it was a moment I will never forget. Establishing this endowed fund represented a personal financial sacrifice, but it has returned to me a hundred times over in ways I never imagined. I trust all of you listed on the pages that follow share similar feelings. Over the past decade, the number of Ouimet endowed scholarships has nearly doubled. Today, the 148 endowed funds total over $17 Million! They account for over one-third of the $2.2 million the Ouimet Fund will award to 457 Scholars in 2019. These annual awards range from $500 per Scholar to over $28,000, depending upon financial need. As successful as the growth of our endowed gifts has been, the need and demand for Ouimet Scholarships continues to increase. For this reason, I ask you to please reach out to your friends and golfing colleagues who may be in a position to endow a scholarship of their own. Those who create a Ouimet endowed fund share a common goal to give back to the game we love while honoring a friend or family member who has had a positive influence on our lives. In doing so, we are having a similar impact on the education of young men and women who become Ouimet Scholars. I know I speak for all of us involved with The Fund when I say how very grateful we are for what you have done and continue to do for the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund and our Scholars.

The Ouimet Endowed Scholarship ProgramThe Ouimet Fund Endowed Scholarship Program has become our cornerstone for growth. Endowed scholarships are permanently

restricted funds that are invested to ensure the existence of the scholarship in perpetuity. The program offers the donor the ability to tailor their gift and the resulting named award to suit their own philanthropic goals. Since 1991, the number of endowed scholarships invested with The Fund has grown from 5 to 148 awards.

A unique quality of the Ouimet Fund Endowed Scholarship Program is that it permanently links the donor, honoree or sponsoring organization with golf, Francis Ouimet, youth and education. Every year, we are thrilled to communicate with the donors and/or honorees to let them know about the student(s) who they are helping and what makes him or her a worthy recipient. We often hear of the satisfaction they feel knowing they’ve made a difference in the life of a young student. The recipients of the awards often send letters of gratitude to their benefactors letting them know how important their support has been.

Endowment Is Important To The Future Of The FundEndowed scholarships are important to the Ouimet Fund and our Scholars. The endowed awards broaden The Fund’s financial base

and proceeds greatly add to our scholarships, lessening our dependence on annual fundraising and events and increasing the dollars available to support all of our Scholars.

Is A Ouimet Endowed Scholarship Right For You?The 148 endowed awards established with the Ouimet Fund have been funded in a variety of ways. The common thread among them is

that the contributions come from individuals, families or special groups who wish to honor a deep commitment and connection to young people, education, the game of golf and Francis Ouimet.

4

1) Who should endow a scholarship? The ideal candidate is someone who has a deep affinity for golf, or has or had a parent or loved one who shares that deep affinity for golf, and who would like to be permanently associated with golf, Francis Ouimet and education. Family members, for instance, may together create an award in the name of their Mom or Dad. Other candidates include companies or clubs and organizations that are close to golf. Members of those organizations may collectively donate and may even approach vendors to contribute to a special cause.2) How can I ensure that my philanthropic goals are realized? The Ouimet Fund’s Endowed Scholarship Program allows the donor to “personalize” a scholarship by determining qualifications that are important to them. Current Ouimet endowed scholarships include awards for Ouimet Scholars who are in a particular field of study, Scholars from a particular club or region of the state, a female Scholar, or an inner-city Scholar. Candidates meeting these restrictions will be given priority. Donors may create their award with very defined restrictions or in broader terms, or the donor can opt to allow The Fund to select a deserving recipient.3) How can I make my contribution? Ouimet endowed scholarships can be funded in a variety of ways:

• Cash Donations: These can be made with a one-time donation or split up over various years based on contractual agreement.• Gifts From Appreciated Stock: Donors may wish to take advantage of the tax savings by making a gift of appreciated stock that would

then be sold by The Fund to establish the award. Consult your tax advisor for more information.• Memorial Donations: People frequently designate the Ouimet Fund for memorial donations when a loved one passes away. Occasionally,

these donations have been large and people have “rolled” them into endowed scholarships by making additional contributions.• Memorial Tournaments: A memorial tournament can be organized by the donating group and the proceeds used to fund a permanently

endowed scholarship.• From a Fundraising Effort: Several organizations have funded endowed awards by soliciting their members to donate toward the

endowed scholarship. Each of the individual donors was able to deduct the donation.

Eddie Lowery Planned Giving Program: The Fund is pleased to recognize, as members of The Eddie Lowery Society, those individuals who have made a future commitment to The Fund through an estate gift. Planned (or bequest) gifts naming the Ouimet Fund as beneficiary through a will, trust agreement, life insurance policy or other deferred gift such as a 401(k) provide a vital resource for our scholarship aid. We thank the following members of the Eddie Lowery Society, some of whom have created an endowed scholarship through their bequest:

Fred Bailey Paul Boudreau

Duffy BrentRichard F. Connolly, Jr.

Robert P. and Theresa N. DonovanRichard J. Fogarty, Jr.

Ted Highberger

Fred Thorne If you would like to learn how you can include the Ouimet Fund as part of your estate plan and join this very special group of supporters, please visit www.Ouimet.org/plannedgiving or contact us at 774.430.9090.

4) Can I gift money from my IRA and receive a charitable tax deduction? The IRA Charitable Rollover has been permanently extended, but we suggest you consult your tax advisor on its current application. The Rollover has allowed individuals age 70½ and older to make direct transfers totaling up to $100,000 per year to 501(c)(3) organizations, such as the Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund, without having to count the transfers as income for federal income tax purposes. The transfers do, however, count toward that person’s required minimum distribution for the year. Transfers must come from your IRAs directly to the Ouimet Fund. If you have retirement assets in a 401(k), 403(b) etc., you must first roll those funds into an IRA, and then you can direct the IRA provider to transfer the funds from the IRA directly to the Ouimet Fund. 5) What Will I Receive For My Contribution? Most importantly, you will receive the satisfaction that comes with realizing your goal of helping young people attain their college dreams. You will also receive annual information from The Fund detailing the student(s) who will be receiving your scholarship, as well as key financial performance data on your fund and the Ouimet Fund in general.. As a token of our gratitude, you will also receive a special “Francis Ouimet and Eddie Lowery” framed plaque which is presented to each sponsor or honoree often at one of our events. Awards are listed annually in this publication, in the Annual Impact Report, and are permanently engraved on a special recognition board at the Ouimet Fund offices at the William F. Connell Golf House.

Please contact The Fund for more information at 774.430.9090.

Frequently Asked Questions

5

What: The Ouimet Fund offers the opportunity for people to permanently endow a Ouimet Fund scholarship. The scholarship may be endowed in your name, the name of a loved one (living or dead), or the name of a company or organization. Scholarships may also be endowed anonymously or in the name of a third party. The Fund can also set up endowed scholarships and manage them for other organizations. Why the Ouimet Fund?: The Francis Ouimet Scholarship Fund has been in existence for nearly 70 years, since 1949. It is one of the most respected charities in New England and has awarded nearly $36 Million in scholarships to over 5,900 students, many of whom have gone on to outstanding careers in business and professional positions. The Ouimet Fund is considered “The Golf Charity of Massachusetts”TM and is supported by over 75 clubs, all of the golf organizations in the state as well as many individuals, companies and foundations. In the last five fiscal years alone, which will end on March 31, 2019, the Ouimet Fund will have awarded over $9.1 Million in Scholarships.

DONATION AND FINANCIAL INFORMATIONDonation Level: The minimum donation required to establish an endowed scholarship is $50,000. Frequently, larger donations are made at the start or ongoing donations are made to increase the impact of the award.Pledging Over Time: A donor may agree to make the donation over a period of two to five years, if necessary.Tax-deductibility: The donation to fund a scholarship and any additional contributions to it, are tax-deductible to the full extent allowed by law.501 (c) (3) Tax-Exempt Organization: The Ouimet Fund has been a non-profit, tax-exempt organization in good standing for 69 years. Tax ID #04-2234126.Portfolio Management: The Fund’s endowed scholarship portfolio is managed by Goldman Sachs and has performed well historically.Audit Report/Yearly Financial Report: The Ouimet Fund has an independent audit each year by a firm that specializes in non-profit organizations and private schools. From that audit, The Fund has information on each endowed scholarship, including growth and disbursements which is communicated to the donor.Amount of Annual Scholarship: The annual amount of the endowed award is generally 5% of the total of the endowment. The endowed award is made as part of, and in addition to, the general Ouimet Scholarship awarded. A $50,000 endowment, for instance, will cover about half of a Ouimet award, that could range from $4,000 to $6,000. Endowments of greater size can be created to provide more than one scholarship per year.Management Fee: The Ouimet Fund draws 1% of the principal each year from each endowed fund and transfers that amount to the annual operating budget. This helps to offset the increasing costs associated with operating and managing the endowed scholarship program. Contract: Upon establishment of a new endowed scholarship, the Ouimet Fund requires a contract that is a standard agreement used by schools and colleges. The contract protects the donor, the student recipient and the Ouimet Fund. The contract stipulates any special restrictions requested by the donor and agreed upon by the Ouimet Fund.“Enduring Value” of the Endowed Scholarship: The permanently endowed scholarship gives a donor a great return for their investment. As the award is made yearly, there is an annual recognition of the donor and/or honoree.

SCHOLARSHIP MANAGEMENT AND SELECTIONSelection of Recipients: The recipients of the endowed scholarship are current Ouimet Scholars. Often, they are Scholars with more substantial need who have been in the Ouimet program for a couple of years and have a “track record” of accomplishment.Notification of Recipients: The Ouimet Fund’s staff reviews all Scholars annually. The Executive Director will inform the donors of the choices for each award.Notification of Winners: The Ouimet Fund will notify the individual recipients of each award, and give them an overview of who established the award, including some information on the honoree. Ouimet Eligibility: Applicants must have completed at least two years “service to golf” as caddies or in pro shop or course superintendent operations at a Massachusetts golf course. The awards are “need-based” and assist with tuition at accredited undergraduate institutions. Management of Scholarship: The Ouimet Fund’s professional staff manages the scholarships.What if there is no Scholar meeting the specified qualifications?: The Ouimet Fund seeks to have each endowed scholarship help a student with need and will select a Scholar who may not meet the narrow restrictions.Waiting Period: If an award is scheduled to be paid over multiple years, until the full financial obligation has been met, a token award will be made from Ouimet Scholarship contingency funds.“Looks Great on a Resume”: The Ouimet endowed awards are considered highly prestigious and past winners list them on resumes. Can the Award be made through a school and put in the investment portfolio of the school?: No. Announcement/Promotion of Awards: The Ouimet Fund lists each award annually in its Annual Impact Report and gives further description in this publication. A photo of the honoree is often included and each year the photo of the recipient is published in this report. If possible, the Ouimet Fund may have a presentation of the award at a key Ouimet event the year it is established. The Ouimet Fund will also present a plaque to the donor, if applicable. Making use of its multitude of social media channels, The Fund publicizes and recognizes recipients through weekly “EndoWEDNESDAYS”, a way of highlighting one award and its recipient on our website.

“I will never forget the joy it gave my mother when I received the news that I had received the scholarship and could be called a Ouimet Scholar. My mother passed away from breast cancer, and as challenging as it still is without her, it is the happy memories like her joy of me receiving the Ouimet Scholarship that help me every day.”

John MannionBridgewater State University, 2018Boston Golf Club

“Thank you so much to all of the donors of the Ouimet Scholarship. Your generosity changed my life and many other scholars’ lives. This scholarship has enabled us to attend the schools we have dreamed of, and to pursue the passions of our lives, which go much further than golf. Being a part of this prestigious scholarship means so much to me, and I hope that one day I can give back in the ways that many of you have for me.”

The money I received from the scholarship allowed me to attend Eckerd College and without it, I would likely not be studying what I love at such a great school.
