Mission and Activities
The organization is dedicated to promoting library services and resources within the community. It fosters a positive relationship between the library and local residents, securing volunteers and raising funds to support library projects that cannot be covered by county funds alone[1][2]. The Friends help enrich library services, finance various programs, and provide cultural, educational, and recreational opportunities for community members[2].
Community Impact
The Friends organization plays a significant role in supporting community programs. One of its notable initiatives is the summer reading program for children. This program encourages reading among school-age kids, and donations help provide backpacks filled with educational supplies to participants who achieve their reading goals[2]. Additionally, the Friends facilitate other community events and programs for various age groups, from infants to adults[2].
Funding and Membership
Funding for the Friends of the Chambers County Library System comes from donations and membership dues. Annual memberships support community programs and contribute to the overall enrichment of the library system. Members help ensure that the library can offer various free events and activities throughout the year[1][2].
Book Sales
To raise additional funds, the Friends engage in book sales. They operate book carts with gently used books at various library branches and maintain a permanent bookstore at one location. These sales are ongoing throughout the year and rely on volunteer support for their operations[1].
