Gifts in Honor and Memoriam
Honor and Memorial Gifts
We invite members and donors to honor those who have made an impact on their lives. To make a donation in memory or in honor of any individual, simply designate the honoree when submitting a gift, with an attached note, comment, or memo.
These gifts can be made to existing programs or funds, or as an undesignated gift to our general fund, which supports all library programs. For more information, please contact us at treasurer@northfieldpubliclibraryfriends.org.

Bequests
If you would like to remember the Northfield Public Library in your will, there are several ways to do this as well. As with memorials, undesignated donations will be applied to our general fund. If you would like to support a specific program or function, simply indicate it in your estate documents. For more information, please contact the Friends’ treasurer at treasurer@northfieldpubliclibraryfriends.org.
Bequests are not publicly acknowledged unless specifically requested.
