Build your own legacy at the library
A planned gift to the Cambridge Public Library allows you to direct your resources in a way that expresses your values, and provides essential support for generations of readers and learners to come.
Libraries are a fundamental part of our lives, and of our society. We remember coming here as children to pick up new books, and be read to by beloved children's librarians. It was here that as teenagers we had some of our most significant academic breakthroughs, and as adults, we turn here to educate ourselves about the world. With joy, we bring our children and our children's children here to introduce them to a love of learning, and a hub of passion and discovery. We pass the baton.
You can leave lasting support for the library by including a gift in your will or trust, or by making the Foundation a beneficiary of your retirement account, life insurance, or investment plan.
