The Pennypacker Society
The
Pennypacker Society is
an honorary organization established by the library to recognized
the generosity of individuals during their lifetime who include
the library in their estate plans.
This can be accomplished in one or more of the following ways including
a bequest for the benefit of the library in your will or trust:
- Including a Specific,
Residuary or Contingent Bequest in your will.
- Creating an Endowment
Fund in your name or in honor of another person.
- Creating a Charitable
Trust for the benefit of the library naming the library as the
beneficiary of a retirement plan or life insurance policy.
- Promising a valuable
book or document which the library has already agreed to accept.
When you become a
member of The Pennypacker Society, you will be invited to special
library events and your name will be listed in the library's Annual
Report under The Pennypacker Society.
There is no minimum amount required for membership. If you wish
to join the Pennypacker Society, you only need to let the East Hampton
Library know that you have made a provision in your estate plan
to benefit the library.
We welcome inquiries about this growing group of library friends
who are concerned with supporting the future of the East Hampton
Library. In the course of considering the gift, you should consult
your attorney or tax advisor. The library welcomes the opportunity
to work with you to find the arrangements that best match the library's
need to your particular situation.

at the East Hampton Library at (631)324-0222.
