Gift Catalog for a Community
You can create a simple Gift Catalog for your community. The Gift Catalog can be a simple one page flyer and a web site. You simply provide a way for a citizen who wishes to give a gift to the public a way to send money or real estate to the Village Clerk.
The following is sample language for your own community gift catalog. Adjust the gifts to fit your community, and add your own community logo and graphics. Please feel free to use it.
