Planned Giving: Your Gift, Your Legacy
Please consider making a planned gift so that library services and programs you enjoy will be available to others. A bequest provides a lasting gift to the people of Tucson and Pima County and may provide tax benefits to your estate. Other planned gifts may provide life income for the donor while also offering tax benefits. We are pleased to discuss these options with you so that you and your attorney or financial advisor can select the best option for you.
Planned giving can be as simple as adding a bequest statement to your will or trust directing a specified portion of the estate to PLF. By doing this, you ensure that your favorite library programs continue.
We are happy to provide you with basic bequest language for your will, an estimate on charitable gift annuity benefits, or other information. Please contact us by email at mail@pimalibraryfoundation.org.
