Year-End Tax-Deductible Donations To Support Libraries

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to support libraries with your year-end tax-deductible donations to the newly launched the EveryLibrary Institute, a companion organization to EveryLibrary.

We launched EveryLibrary in 2012 as a 501c4 with the idea that local libraries need support in order to fight against organizations that are trying to cut their funding, to stand up to politicians who are threatening closures, and to have the resources they need to go to the voters in order to keep their doors open. We’re proud to have worked on 100 campaigns and elections to help libraries earn over 1.7 billion dollars in stable funding so they can continue to serve their communities. Because this 501c4 work is political, your donations to EveryLibrary are not tax-deductible, but they are highly impactful.

Since 2012 we’ve learned that direct political action is critical, but it is also not enough. If we want libraries to continue to win, we need to complement our direct political work with research, voter education, and trainings for local library supporters and advocates. To accomplish this, we launched the EveryLibrary Institute as a 501c3 companion organization where donations are tax-deductible.

Your tax-deductible donations to the EveryLibrary Institute will help us bolster the work we are doing through EveryLibrary by building capacity for activities that are fundable through tax-deductible donations. Your donations will ensure that we can continue to expand on the 6 years of success we have seen fighting for local libraries just like yours.
