100% of all donations are used to support library programs, services and resources. The Friends gladly accept donations in any amount from $1 to $1M. Donations can be given in honor of someone's birthday or anniversary or in memory of a cherished person. Donations to the FFNPL make wonderful holiday gifts too, and they are tax deductible!
If you would like to remember the Northfield Public Library in your will, there are several ways to do this as well. As with memorials, undesignated donations will be applied to our general fund. If you would like to support a specific program or function, simply indicate it in your estate documents.
Bequests are not publicly acknowledged unless specifically requested.
We invite members and donors to honor those who have made an impact on their lives. To make a donation in memory or in honor of any individual, simply designate the honoree when submitting a gift, with an attached note, comment, or memo.
These gifts can be made to existing programs or funds, or as an undesignated gift to our general fund, which supports all library programs.
You may wish to include the Friends and Foundation's endowment fund in your estate planning. The endowment fund is managed by the MN Philanthropy Partners and ensures that support for our library will continue in perpetuity.
Consult with your estate planner and contact the Friends and Foundation, so that we may acknowledge your long term gift to the library.
Friends make great volunteers! They help the library staff with programs and services, such as home delivery of reading and listening materials, shelving materials at the library, assisting with digital technology, mending early literacy center toys, hosting special event, etc.
If you have an hour or more each week, once a month, or just occasionally, contact Volunteer Coordinator Amy Commers at the library at Amy.Commers@northfieldmn.gov or call 645-6606 and ask for Amy.
