Serbian term or phrase: zadužbinar
Kao i u prethodnom pitanju, htela bih da izbegnem "foundation founder" i slične rogobatne izraze. Dajem kao primer neke rečenice u kojima se izraz javlja (ima ih još mnogo):
Mnogo više zadužbinara dao je polupismeni sloj srpskog društva od srpskih intelektualaca.
Ktitori i zadužbinari nisu bili samo oni koji su osnivali manastir ili crkvu već i oni koji su ih kasnije obnavljali.
Kultura, nauka i obrazovanje su oblasti koje su zadužbinari najčešće pomagali.

patron endower/endower
Explanation:
"The patron endower of the church of St. Sava in Bobotovo Groblje is Miodrag Davidovic. Nikodim Zizic prepared architectural plans for the future complex, which is to include a chapel, a cemetery and a bell tower in addition to the church building."

"In 1859, and when he had attained a prominent position in the very front rank of the profession, his cousin, Dr. William Clark, the well-known founder and endower of the Free Church College of Glasgow, bequeathed to him his estate of Wester Moffat, and the whole remainder of his property of every kind, coupled with an injunction to bear the surname of Clark. Mr. Towers therefore became, and to his death continued, Mr. Towers-Clark."

Hvala svima. I ovde bi kombinacija odgovora najbolje odgovarala. Opredeliću se za endower, u engleskim izvorima se pravi razlika između patron i endower, a i philanthropist ne mora nužno da osniva svoju zadužbinu, može i na drugi način davati u dobrotvorne svrhe.
