Underwriting Opportunities for Corporate, Business, and Individual Donors:
Non-endowment, non-fixed, non-general operating projects.
Since our primary thrust in fundraising is currently capital endowment and museum
expansion, and not all grant making entities support that kind of funding, we thought it
wise to put forward some non-fixed, non- endowment underwriting opportunities. These
programs would be administered by and highly beneficial to Starr Homeplace.
