Ways to Give

Give for today

The Durham Library Foundation receives tax-deductible gifts from generous donors who are inspired to help make our libraries exceptional. A donation provides programs and services not funded through the county’s annual budget.

Annual funds also support Foundation operations that help us to develop more resources in support of our libraries. We accept a broad range of contributions, and every gift helps Durham Libraries stay relevant, vibrant, and enjoyed by all. We cannot thank you enough.

Champions of Literacy

Champions of Literacy is a robust group of donors who give $1,000 or more annually to support the Durham County Library through Durham Library Foundation.

While gifts of all amounts are gratefully received, we give special recognition to those who have so generously supported at this level each fiscal year.

Champions receive recognition on our website and invitations to two special events. Meet our Champions

The health of our civilization, the depth of our awareness about the underpinnings of our culture, and our concern for the future can all be tested by how well we support our libraries.
