Continue the Story: Support Summer Reading and Library Programs
Every summer, the library helps children and families stay connected through books, learning, and shared experiences.
Your gift helps strengthen programs like Summer Reading, making them more engaging, accessible, and meaningful for our community. A gift of $20 helps support one child’s Summer Reading experience.
Right now, your gift can go twice as far. Thanks to a generous friend of the Foundation, gifts to the Continue the Story campaign will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000.
