Library Giving Day is a one-day online fundraising event held annually in April to support and celebrate libraries. Donations help fund essential programs, services, and resources that benefit the community.
Your donation helps fund programs and projects like:
- Born to Read Kits: Providing babies and their new mothers with their first board book, an insulated carrier, and access to their first Library card.
- Early Literacy Spaces: Creating engaging environments for young children to explore reading and learning.
- Library of Things: Providing access to unique items like telescopes, musical instruments, board games, outdoor equipment, and more—expanding learning and exploration beyond books.
- Excel Online High School Program: Offering flexible, accredited online education for students to earn their high school diploma at their own pace.
- Storybook Walks: Combining reading and physical exercise through innovative outdoor activities in local parks.
- 24-Hour Access: Extending service hours to meet educational and technology needs.
- iPad refresh for library branches and iPad labs: Updating technology to enhance user experience and access to resources.
- Outdoor protection for Hold Hoppers: Ensuring 24/7 pick-up accessibility for library users.
- And so much more!
