Gifts and bequests of any size are welcome. Donations may include bequests, appreciated stock, and outright gifts. Donors may direct their gifts to be used to support general fields of interest (education, arts, open spaces, library; specific groups (youth, seniors); or specific Lafayette non profit institutions (schools or named organizations). |
