In Memoriam and In Celebration Giving
You can honor the memory of a loved one or celebrate a special occasion through a gift to the Portland Public Library.
To make a memorial or celebratory gift, please use our secure giving form and include the name of the person you wish to recognize in the “notes” section. Memorial gifts to existing endowed funds should be made this way as well; rest assured they will be properly allocated, and we will confirm this with you in a written acknowledgment. Thank you for your thoughtfulness in honoring someone special with your gift to the Library.
Plan Your Giving
Making a planned gift allows you to make a gift to the Library with many benefit options for you and your family. Your attorney, accountant, or financial planner can assist with the details of establishing such a gift. Learn more about making a planned gift:
