Friends of the Bennington Public Library are raising funds through an inaugural Library Giving Day campaign. This one-day online fundraising event will occur on Wednesday, April 10, 2019 and will encourage patrons and Library lovers to make a gift to their individual library system. This campaign reminds us that libraries, small and large, serve as a cornerstone for our communities. Beyond well-loved books, many libraries offer innovative programs that promote lifelong learning, connect patrons to technology, and advance knowledge.Friends of the Bennington Library is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) that helps theLibrary build its collection and resources, offer programs for patrons of all ages and better serve the needs of our community. The Foundation does this by securing and managing donations from the community to support the Library beyond what public funding provides.
