1,000 Homes Fundraising Campaign Underway

The library is in the midst of a major renovation project, slated to be completed in late 2026. The Friends are committed to supporting this project.

As part of our fundraising efforts, we recently sent out a flyer inviting you to participate in our 1,000 Homes Campaign.

To learn more about the building project, the Foundation (the major gifts arm of the Friends), and the 1,000 Homes campaign, visit the new Foundation website.

For a brief overview of the building project and how the Friends are involved, see the Building Renovation page.
