We are excited to share this year’s projects for funding consideration through the Volunteer Endowment Trust 2022-2023. As part of the Volunteer Council’s (VC) ongoing mission to demonstrate transparency in our decision making, Volunteer President Maya Kotlarenko has once again created an online voting process for the volunteer community to help choose the project you collectively want to support most. As a reminder, you won’t be ranking the projects, you can just choose one to support. Your vote matters!

The 3 projects can be read about in much greater detail in the attached proposal PDF, prepared by Erin Thandini, Senior Manager of Philanthropy and Planned Giving.

Voting is open to volunteers until March 31, 2022.

Want to know more about the Volunteer Endowment Trust? The VET was established in 2001 with a Letter of Agreement between the AGO, The AGO Foundation and the Volunteers of the AGO. The original capital that created the fund continues to remain invested and an annual distribution of 4% of the fund (approx. $50,000) is made available in order to fund a project. Each year, the AGO’s Development team identifies 3 projects for consideration that reflect the Gallery’s strategic priorities.  Many thanks for your support!

Maya Kotlarenko,

Volunteer President, on behalf of  the Volunteer Council
