We can build the future. Together.
Guelph Public Library’s Annual Campaign is our yearly appeal to the community to help support urgent needs and promising opportunities. Each year, these donations directly support the dream of a new Central Library as well as a chosen annual project. By giving to this appeal, your gift helps to ensure great service today and prepare the library for its future.
In 2012, GPL launched this appeal with the partnership of our first ever ‘Library Lions’ – the Schneider’s – a family who exemplifies what the library means to our community. Thanks to their help, and many other generous supporters, the annual campaign has grown into an essential part of our fundraising efforts.
This year’s campaign is as important as ever. As plans for a new Central Library ramp up, your support will reinforce our community’s passion for this essential project that will meet the future needs of a growing Guelph. It’s a big project and takes a big vision with inspired partners. Your gift reminds our partners that we are truly serious about this new library in our downtown – a much needed community resource. We’re closer than ever – and with your support, the possibilities are infinite.
We’re also proud to once again partner with the Rattray family and direct a portion of proceeds to the Rosa Rattray Early Literacy Fund in support of early literacy initiatives at the Guelph Public Library. Thanks to their help – along with the generosity of many others – we were able to reach our goal during last year’s campaign to purchase four additional Early Literacy Stations. These additional stations have enabled 1000’s of critical learning hours for children across our community.
We hope you’ll consider joining us this year. We welcome your support, as directed by you.
