Planned Giving

Your Library. Your Legacy.

Choose a Way to Give

Planned giving is any deferred gift intended to benefit the future of Nashville Public Library. There are a variety of financial arrangements that will allow you to make a planned gift to NPLF.

Your charitable bequest or other planned gift will not only ensure the Library and its programs thrive. It will allow you to create a deeply meaningful legacy that will endure for years. This gift also makes you a member of our Legacy Society, a group of dedicated Library supporters.

Financial Arrangements

Will – You may make a bequest of cash, stocks and bonds, real estate, personal property, or a percentage of your estate.

Trusts – A trust may be established to benefit NPLF now or at a later time.
