A strong public library is the foundation upon which a community can preserve the past, empower lives today, and build for the future.
Our goal is to continue to provide support:
- for projects that encourage children and young adults
- to cultivate a life-long enthusiasm for reading and learning
- to continue to support collections, programs, and services
- to act as advocates to ensure that library services continue on into the future.
Whether donating online, through the mail or in person, you can always specify where you would like your donation to be put to best use.
The Way Public Library Foundation & Friends is a non-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization founded by a group of citizens who understood that a strong public library would not be possible through public funding alone
