Making a bequest to Katonah Village Library through your will is one of the simplest and most popular ways to ensure the library is here for generations to come. There are no minimum dollar requirements or complex rules to understand.
Simply include a statement in your will or trust agreement that expresses your charitable intentions. Suggested text might include:
I give, devise and bequeath to Katonah Village Library, 26 Bedford Road, Katonah, NY 10536 $____________ for its general purposes (or list specific property or a percentage of estate).
If you have already made a will, you can add bequest language by means of a codicil.
Katonah Village Library Tax ID#: 131921202
You should consult with your own legal and/or tax advisors before adding this or any charitable bequest language to your will or trust agreement.
If you have questions about planned gifts to the library, or if you would like to notify the library of an intended bequest, please contact Ellen Waltimyer, Development Manager, at ewaltimyer@wlsmail.org or 914-232-3508 x8.
