Gifts to the Pima Library Foundation are Used to Fund Critical Strategic Library Initiatives that Go Beyond Books.
Your contribution to the Pima Library Foundation ensures that Pima County’s libraries can create and expand programs, services, and spaces that go beyond books. Funding through the Foundation enables our libraries to provide so much more than with tax dollars alone. Funding through the Foundation does not replace any existing or future government funding.
The Foundation makes sure that your gift is used where it is needed most.
As the private philanthropic partner to the Pima County Public Library, the Foundation makes sure that your gift is used where it is needed most if no program or initiative is specified when you make your donation. Our staff can assist you in making your gift, whether it is cash, insurance, real estate, or a bequest.
The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization, and all gifts are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. (Federal Tax ID #86-1034492)
Gifts can also be made to the Foundation by check to:
Pima Library Foundation
PO Box 13245
Tucson, AZ 85732
If you would like to make your gift in honor of, or in memory of, a friend or family member, please note the honoree’s name in the notes field of the credit card link, in the memo field of your check, or contact PLF for assistance. Please provide contact information for the honoree or their family so that we may acknowledge your gift to them.
Please consider making a planned gift so that library services and programs you enjoy will be available to others. A bequest provides a lasting gift to the people of Tucson and Pima County and may provide tax benefits to your estate.
Planned giving can be as simple as adding a bequest statement to your will or trust directing a specified portion of the estate to PLF. By doing this, you ensure that your favorite library programs continue.
Other planned gifts may provide life income for the donor while also offering tax benefits. We are pleased to discuss these options with you so that you and your attorney or financial advisor can select the best option for you.
We are happy to provide you with basic bequest language for your will, an estimate on charitable gift annuity benefits, or other information. Please contact us by email at mail@thepimalibraryfoundation.org.
When you contribute to the Pima Library Foundation’s endowment, you’re investing in the future cultural, civic, and economic vitality of Pima County. Since its inception, the Pima Library Foundation has been dedicated to building an endowment to ensure that resources will always be available to support Library programs and services that would otherwise go unfunded due to budget constraints.
To make your gift to the endowment by credit card, simply note your wishes in the notes field. If giving by check, please note it on the memo line. As always you are welcome to contact us directly for any questions you may have. Please send an email to mail@thepimalibraryfoundation.org.
