VAC HAS PROGRAM ESTABLISHED TO ACCEPT MEMORIAL
GIFTS
Did you know that the Village Art Club accepts memorial
contributions? A person can give a memorial contribution and
designate where the contribution should go, such as scholarships,
gallery, art library or eve a special designation of choice. The
giver does not have to be a VAC member; it can be anyone.
The program was set up several years ago so that there
would be a way to recognize the giver and the person being remembered.
When memorial gifts are received by the VAC, a card is sent to the
family of the person being remembered, and another sent to the person
giving the gift.
There is also a program to accept donations through
wills and trusts dedicated to the Village Art Club. This makes it
convenient for the living to be sure their gifts go where they designate
when they have passed away. These funds can be set up at any time
with an attorney.
Gifts also do not have to be memorials. They can
also be given as an honorarium, to recognize a person who has done
something special or who means something special for the giver.
If you want to recognize someone, remember the VAC.
