"Giving is not just about making a donation. It's about making a difference."

The Legacy Shelf
What do you want your legacy to be about? Giving and service are among the most meaningful ways you can answer this question. Our legacy shelf consists of a three sizes of book spine for our patrons to choose from; small: $75, medium: $125, and large: $250. Patrons will get the opportunity to work with Library Director, Lisa Santucci to customize their very own book spine to reflect their personality and preferences. Each spine is hand painted by Ohio artisan, Stacy Slanker of the Three Maries. Once completed, the book spine will be mounted to our legacy shelf on the front main street entrance wall.
Your contribution is tax deductible and will be used to support the Tipp City Public Library Endowment Fund. Book spine purchases are at the discretion of the library director. The legacy shelf is the perfect way to commemorate a special occasion or honor a family member. Invest in what makes Tipp City so great, community.

Endowment Fund
An endowment fund is a way for organizations – like the Tipp City Public Library – to set aside special funds for the future! Once established, an organization’s endowment will provide a certain amount of funds each year that the organization can use to meet its needs and enhance its programs.
This endowment will be a vital part in providing prestige programming, implementing facility enhancements, and creating opportunities for future generations.
Tipp City Public Library can use this money to provide prestige programming, implement facility enhancements, and create opportunities for future generations.
