Boise Public Library Foundation
The Boise Public Library Foundation, Inc. is a nonprofit corporation
that was formed in 1985 to attract substantial support from
contributions, directly or indirectly, from persons within and outside
the community to benefit the Boise Public Library.
The Bucks for Books campaign raised approximately $50,000 toward the purchase of library materials. Past annual fund-raisers have included Masquerade Balls and the At Home events which raised $8,000 annually for the purchase of materials and library equipment. Fundraising efforts have been responsible for the completion of the community room at the Boise Towne Square Mall library branch. This room is used for childrens story times and other library programs, public community meetings for organizations, etc. The Foundation has also funded the installation of a local area computer network for public and staff access. Plans are underway for a permanent endowment fund to benefit Boise Public Library. The continued dedication of the Foundation Board to Boise Public Library enables us to provide more and better service to our patrons and helps ensure that our goals of being an information and learning center are met. Donations in any amount are gratefully accepted, and qualify as a charitable donation as well as an Idaho state tax credit. If you would like to make a financial donation to the Foundation today, just print and complete the donation form and mail it with your contribution to the address indicated on the form.
