Whatcom County Library Foundation

You did it! Thank you to the 189 donors who raised more than $19,000 (and counting...) during Library Giving Day! Every gift matters and you surpassed the $15,000 goal, strengthening the community with your gifts.

Because of you, newborns will receive their first books, local kids in the Summer Reading program get to keep a "forever book", community members will enjoy free concerts across the county and people of all ages will attend the Open Book book fair on November 8.

Thank you for your support of key library programs and events that improve the lives of people of all ages across Whatcom County!

Thank you to our amazing community of donors who are giving during Library Giving Day today! 121 of you have raised $12,125 toward our $15,000 goal...and counting.

Every gift of every amount matters! Your gifts have unlocked $1,000 in matching gifts. When we reach 150 donors total we'll unlock another $750 by the end of the day.
