        Sources of Funds
        The NRF accepts both restricted and
        unrestricted/designated gifts from our donors. It
        is our policy to use the unrestricted annual gifts, gifts
        to the National Team, and endowment income to support our
        National Teams. Gifts that are restricted are used in the manner
        designated by the donor.


        Our 2015 audited results show total contributions and endowment
        distribution of $2,228,668.  Gifts totaled $2,032,066 of which $89,816
        was designated by our donors for addition to our endowment.  In 2015,
        our endowment funds distribution added $196,602 of additional funds.
