The Library Foundation works with the Library Board, the Library Administration, and the public to help determine what the Library needs most. The Library Foundation is a community-based and volunteer-driven organization, so your involvement and participation is vital to our success!
Ideas and suggestions for fundraising projects can be brought forward to the Library Foundation by anyone, at any time. Written proposals, even in the form of a letter or email message, are preferred as they most clearly describe the project, but the ideas can also be presented in person through a presentation to the Board of Directors.
You can also get involved by joining an action committee that may be planning an event - such as a gala dinner, a speaker series, or one our of many fundraising drives. By getting involved in this way, you can choose the amount of time you commit to the project, and make the most of your support for your library!
The Winnipeg Library Foundation is also working on a number of other special projects. Visit this site often to stay on top of current events, or subscribe to our mailing list.
