Giving Tuesday might be a global movement, but you can make a difference close to home. While the library receives the majority of its funding from tax dollars, we rely on the IPPL Foundation & Friends to support initiatives that are outside the library’s budget. We are fortunate to have people like YOU who donate to the IPPL Foundation & Friends. When you donate, 100 percent of your funds support programs, services, and collections.
This giving season, you can fulfill our community’s wish list. Unless you wish to be anonymous, we will place your name as the sponsor of the item(s) you donate.
