očigledno se radi o dva različita pojma, moj predlog je foundation za fondaciju i endowment za zadužbinu.

Evo npr definicije za endowment (sigurno je jedine):

"An endowment is an investment that provides endless support to charitable causes. It’s an investment in the future … the future of San Diego. It’s a gift … a promise without end, made by you to your children and grandchildren in support of your community. Endowments are made possible by you … those who have lived and embraced all that our region has had, will have and can have.

Endowments are permanent. They are funds with the requirement that the principal is never spent. The balance in these funds is invested, earning income that is then spent to support charitable works in perpetuity.

There are three types of endowment to choose from: Endowment for the Common Good, Field of Interest Endowment, and Designated Endowment."

pardon, typo hteo sam da kažem da to sigurno nije jedina definicija, naravno.
