Leave a Gift in Your Will or Trust
You can make a lasting impact by including the Library District in your will or trust. You might leave a specific amount of money, a portion of your estate, or even personal items that matter to you. Bequests help support the library’s programs and services for years to come, and they may also reduce estate taxes for your heirs.
Tips for Including the Library District in Your Will or Trust
- Be specific: Decide whether you want to leave a set dollar amount, a percentage of your estate, or particular items of value.
- Use our legal name: Make sure to use the Library District’s full legal name to avoid confusion.
- Talk to your attorney: A qualified estate planning attorney can help you add the gift correctly to your will or trust.
- Let us know (optional): While not required, letting us know about your gift allows us to thank you and help honor your wishes.
- Review regularly: Life changes can affect your plans, so revisit your will or trust periodically.
