Gifts through a Will or Trust For many people, a gift made through a will or trust is the way to make a major gift. This is particularly attractive if you are unable to make a significant gift at this time, but would like to contribute to the Library Foundation in a meaningful way. Property; including cash, stocks and bonds, jewelry, works of art, and real estate may be given through a will or trust. Through estate planning provisions, you may leave to the Fairfax County Public Library a specific dollar amount (for example, $50,000), a certain percentage of the estate, or you can state that the Fairfax County Public Library Foundation, Inc. is to receive the residue of your estate after provisions for all other beneficiaries have been made. Your bequest may be made in honor of, or in memory of a loved one. All outright bequests to the Fairfax County Public Library Foundation, Inc. are tax deductable to the full extent of the law.
