What do the Friends do?
Friends concentrate on the FUN in fundraising while they raise funds for their local library, assist with programs and events, and sponsor special programs for children, teens, adults and seniors in their community. Friends are the extra hands and energy that connect the community to the library. They provide new ideas and advocate for the library and its services.
