Our Library is a great place to spend time during the cold winter months and select a good book or DVD to take home to enjoy. Last year your contributions made it possible for us to buy 16,000 new books, CDs, DVDs and audiobooks. The quality of the collection reflects the generosity of our community of donors. The town provides an annual grant, but we need $310,000 in additional contributions to fund the collection this Library year. We encourage you to be a part of the giving partnership by making a donation of whatever amount is right for you.
We also remind you that if your company offers matching gifts, please take advantage of their generosity to maximize your contribution. If you aren’t sure if your company offers matching gifts, click here.
Thank you for your support.
