Establishing a Legacy Gift

The generous bequest from Paul O. Blanchette kickstarted the successful ASPIRE campaign to build the new library. Because of the kindness of this legacy gift, we inspired and raised $1 million to help the city build and furnish this incredible library for our community. Since that campaign, we have named our legacy society after Paul to honor his generosity.

If you love the library and want to see it thrive for generations to come, consider establishing your legacy gift with the South Burlington Library Foundation.

There are a few easy ways you can establish your legacy gift:

Add the South Burlington Library Foundation as a beneficiary of a financial account (like a 401(k), IRA, or life insurance plan. Typically, you can do this online or with one simple form at your financial institution and you just need our Federal Tax ID number (#81-4777508).
Include a gift in your will. As you make your estate plans, you can leave a specific dollar amount or a percentage of your estate to benefit the library.

Should you choose to establish a legacy gift, please let us know. We would love to thank you!

Or if you are considering a legacy gift, please reach out to us, so we can talk about how you'd like the benefit the library. There are so many ways your generosity can benefit the library, while leaving your own legacy in our community.
