2009 Annual Fund Drive

Annual giving is the backbone of any non-profit institution. For the library, these funds provide the flexibility for the library to direct resources to the areas of greatest need and ensure that we continue to remain a vital part of the community. It is through your generosity that books, materials, and programs can be offered throughout the year.

Looking into the coming year, there is little doubt that our government funding will drop as we all struggle in this economic crisis. And yet the public library is one of the institutions that people look to during such times for books, computer access, newspapers, and activities. 

This is why we are especially thankful to the following individuals, businesses, and organizations who have made a contribution to the Tamaqua Area Public Library 2009 Annual Fund Drive, beginning on March 8, 2009.
