The ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½ Legacy Society
Legacy Society members support ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½â€™s mission by including a charitable bequest to ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½ in their will. Including ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½Â in your planned giving will leave a lasting legacy in the fight to end the ÌÇÐÄvlgo´«Ã½n book famine. Â
Create a living legacy that will last for generationsÂ
