Dewey Circle

Leave a lasting legacy as a member of the Dewey Circle, Charlotte Mecklenburg Library Foundation’s Legacy Giving Group

The Dewey Circle was established to acknowledge the outstanding generosity of friends and donors who have included the Charlotte Mecklenburg Library Foundation in their estate plans. Their legacy gifts will provide crucial support for the Library in the years to come, helping us continue to provide for learners of all ages throughout our community. Many donors designate their legacy gifts to help build the Library’s endowment for the future.

Anyone can leave a legacy gift of any size, and there are simple ways to do it. We’d welcome the opportunity to work with you to create a structure that suits your passions and works within your overall estate plans including making provisions through:

  • Bequests
  • IRA / Retirement Assets
  • Life Insurance
  • Charitable Trust

Inquiries will be handled confidentially and place you under no obligation. To learn more about planned giving, please contact Karen Beach at (704) 416-0802 or kbeach@cmlibrary.org.
