Devon, PA – December 12, 2014 – DevInvest has announced the establishment of an endowment to benefit the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair.

DevInvest is a new nonprofit foundation which will act independently from the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair Inc. and the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair Foundation. The endowment was approved during its initial board meeting held yesterday.

The news of the new endowment was received with great excitement in Devon. “Since our humble beginnings in 1896, we have grown to become a world-class competition that annually features a widely-respected international field of exhibitors,” said Sarah Coxe Lange, President and CEO of the Devon Horse Show and Country Fair. “With the creation of the endowment foundation, DevInvest can now build a solid financial base to benefit our Show for years and generations to come.”

Devon Horse Show and Country Fair Secretary Norma Hamm noted that “when we learned about the possibilities of a new, independent foundation, we were incredibly inspired to work diligently and ensure that this endowment is built for the long term to support the Horse Show and Country Fair.”
