Making contributions to the Library's Endowment Fund is simple.

Cash or Stock
Gifts of cash or stock to the endowment in memory or honor of a loved one are popular ways to help. Gifts of stock can be made easily by calling the Library Foundation or the Erie Community Foundation.

Will or Trust
Naming our endowment fund in a will or bequest is a wonderful way to be remembered. The Library Foundation or the Erie Community Foundation staff is available to help with such gifts as charitable remainder trusts, charitable gift annuities, pooled income funds, and charitable lead trusts that provide you with lifetime income.

Life Insurance
Life insurance policies enable virtually everyone to make a gift. You may choose to give a paid-up policy, buy a new policy or buy insurance to replace a charitable bequest.

IRA or Qualified Plan and Real Property with Lifetime Use
The professional staff at the Erie Community Foundation can discuss with you the assets that can provide for you during your lifetime and furnish a substantial gift to our Library Endowment Fund later.

For additional information, please contact the Erie County Public Library Foundation Development Office at 814.451.7337 or the Erie Community Foundation at 814.454.0843.

Please consider a small doantion.
