Part V, Line 4:

In 1991-92, SNPT received a $200,000 term endowment where the corpus (principal) is to be held in perpetuity.

It is the policy of SNPT to hold the corpus of such gifts and to spend the appreciation according to the donor's directions. The remaining endowment funds are contributions received from donors which were directed to by the donors for various purposes.
