THE ONLY RESTRICTED FUNDS THAT HAD LEGAL BASIS AND DOCUMENTS INCLUDED THE BOARD ENDOWMENT AND THE MIKE O'BRIEN FUND. IN 2023, THE MIKE O'BRIEN FUNDS WERE RELEASED WITH A SIGNED LETTER AND THE BOARD ENDOWMENT CONTINUES TO REMAIN INTACT. THE DOS CHAPPELL AND CAPITAL RESERVE FUND WERE PREVIOUSLY CREATED BY THE BOARD AND HAVE NO BINDING LEGAL DOCUMENTS. VOC HAS MADE A MOVE TO NOT NAME FUNDS BUT INSTEAD NAME PROGRAMMING AND INFRASTRUCTURE AFTER THESE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO VOC'S LEGACY. BOARD DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT: THIS FUND REMAINS WITH THE SAME DESIGNATIONS AS PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED BY THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE INVESTED IN A MIX OF CASH, FIXED INCOME, AND EQUITIES. AT YEAR-END, THE BALANCE OF THE FUND WAS 3,038,252. IN 2024 A FAMILY FOUNDATION DONATED APPROXIMATELY 200,000 WORTH OF STOCK TO THE BOARD DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT, WHICH THE ORGANIZATION SUBSEQUENTLY LIQUIDATED. THE FUNDS ARE TO BE USED AT THE ORGANIZATION'S DISCRETION FOR SCHOLARSHIPS. ON THE 2023 AND 2024 RETURNS, ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT AMOUNTS WERE INCORRECTLY INCLUDED WITH THE ENDOWMENT FUNDS. ON THE 2025 RETURN, WE HAVE CORRECTED THE PRIOR COLUMNS TO ONLY INCLUDE THE ENDOWMENT AMOUNTS AND ACTIVITY.
