Every contribution given to the Foundation is carefully managed in order to provide the greatest benefit to those using the Library and participating in its programs. The Foundation supports the Library both through its Annual Fund and an Endowment Fund.
Annual Fund
You can feel great knowing that your contribution goes directly to support the material purchases, programs and services the Library deems most important. More than three-quarters of the Annual Fund directly finances the Library’s “wish list” of improvements and community programs. Only a small percentage of the fund is used for fundraising and administrative expenses.
Endowment Fund
A source of ongoing support, our Endowment Fund is held in perpetuity and managed by Canterbury Consulting, Inc. of Newport Beach, Calif. The experienced management group is dedicated to helping the Foundation meet its investment objectives and provide long term protection for the Library and its branches. Some of the interest earned from investments is placed back into the Annual Fund to directly support the Library’s improvements and programs.
