Schlow Library Foundation
What is the Schlow Library Foundation?
The Schlow Library Foundation (formerly known as the Friends of Schlow Library) is made up of community volunteers who give their time because they love the Library. The Foundation provides crucial funding support for the programs and services at Schlow Library. This support is made possible by donations of all sizes to the Foundation by community members.
This also includes important advocacy, financial investment, and volunteer support for the Library, with an eye towards a sustainable future.
The Foundation is working to ensure that the Library services you cherish will continue without interruption through fundraising projects and outreach programs.
Donations to the Schlow Library Foundation are tax-deductible and make an immediate impact in your community. All donations made to the Foundation go directly to support the Library.
In short, Friends are The Foundation...YOU are The Foundation!
