Planned Giving

In addition to cash and stock donations, the Library gratefully accepts deferred or planned gifts, including charitable trusts, gift annuities, life insurance policies, and bequest intentions. These meaningful gifts help ensure that the Evanston Public Library can continue serving our community for generations to come.

Information about the types of gifts accepted by EPL can be found in our Gift Acceptance Policy, available on our website at https://epl.org/gift-acceptance-donor-agreements/, opens a new window.

If you have included the Evanston Public Library in your estate plans or established another planned gift to benefit the Library, we would be honored to know of your intention. Sharing this information with our Development team allows us to properly acknowledge your generosity and express our gratitude for your future support.

If you have questions about planned giving or would like to discuss your options, please contact our Development Associate, Jennifer Shreve, at (847) 866-5947 or by email.

Thank you for considering a lasting investment in the future of the Evanston Public Library and the community we serve.

While the Library is happy to discuss planned giving opportunities, we do not provide financial, legal, or tax advice. We encourage donors to consult their professional advisors when making charitable gift decisions.
