The Regents Park Endowment Fund was created in conjunction with the Archdiocese of Brisbane to support our parish activities well into the future. An endowment is a fund in which the principal deposit is permanently invested for growth and never spent down. Each year the fund distributes a percentage of the balance back to the Parish (currently 5%). As the fund matures through investment growth and your donations, the distributions increase and become a steady stream of annual income for the good works of our Parish.
