Your gift to the Friends of the Allen Public Library Endowment Fund will help provide for the long-term financial strength and security of one of the area*s premier cultural institutions.
Every gift helps, no matter what the size, and all are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
There are many ways to leave your legacy: Planned Giving Planned giving offers you a variety of ways to provide a future basis of support for the Fund and the Library. You can name the Endowment Fund as a beneficiary of your retirement assets or life insurance policy. Or you can establish a Charitable Remainder Trust to receive periodic payments during your lifetime and then pass the *remainder* on to the Endowment Fund.
Available options include: - Charitable Remainder Trusts - Charitable Gift Annuities - Gifts of Real Estate - Bequests
Corporate Giving Philanthropic support of the Allen Public Library demonstrates your company*s commitment to one of our community*s most precious resources and leaves a lasting impression on your employees. In addition, by establishing a Matching Gift program, you can create an opportunity for your employees to participate as well. One-time or Sustaining gifts Your gift of cash or your pledge of a gift is always welcome. Ongoing monthly, quarterly or annual gifts allow you to spread your contribution out over time. Honorary or Memorial gifts A gift to the Endowment Fund is a meaningful way to convey sympathy to the bereaved, memorialize a loved one, commemorate a special occasion or honor someone who cares about a lifetime of learning and the power of words. Pay tribute to a friend or family member and we will send a card to the individual you designate notifying them of your gift.
