Congrats on making it past another
Thanksgiving weekend. The fridge is full of leftovers, the family have all gone home, and maybe you even got a great deal on a new air fryer on
Cyber Monday.
But today is a great day to think about giving back. After all, that’s what
Giving Tuesday is all about.
With all of the commercialism and shopping that monopolizes this time of year, Giving Tuesday is about giving back without expectation. Whether that’s to your favorite charity, a local food bank, or just paying for the coffee of the person behind you on line, make it your goal today to do something for someone else.
We would love your support of the
Edison Public Library Foundation. All donations made to the foundation go toward maintaining the services in the
Edison Public Library that our patrons rely on and not be used for any other organizations. And as a registered 501(c)(3) corporation, your donation is tax deductible. You can
donate safely and securely through PayPal.
Of course, there are other ways to give back. By using
smile.amazon.com, you can select the
Edison Public Library Foundation as your charity of choice. Then, with each purchase you make using that URL, Amazon will donate directly to our foundation. This allows you to support your local library while you get all of your holiday shopping done.
There are more ways to support us in 2023:
- Adopt-A-Book – In early 2023, we’ll be launching an Adopt-A-Book program, which will allow you to purchase a book for the Edison Public Library. This, coupled with our planned furniture drive, will allow you to donate as much or as little as you can while leaving your legacy within the library.
- Friends of the Edison Public Library – In 2023, we’ll be launching Friends of the Edison Public Library. By joining Friends, you’ll be able to donate money, time, or experience to help broaden the library's services.
At the end of it all, we’re thankful for your continued support of the
Edison Public Library system. We hope we lived up to your expectations, and we’re excited for all of the improvements we have in the works!
