Friends of the Stoneham Library
About
The Friends of the Stoneham Library is a nonprofit charity that builds a community of volunteers and donors to support the cultural life of Stoneham through strong library services. It organizes events that residents enjoy and that raise awareness of the library and its programs, encourages gifts, endowments and memorials beyond the library’s budget, and donates all funds raised to support children’s, teen and adult services.
The group also advocates for the public library at the town level so it receives ongoing support and funding, and it informs residents about how the library is funded. Volunteers help the library’s staff with special projects. The Friends report raising more than $30,000 in three months to support library operations, and their message is that Stoneham deserves a strong, vibrant library that thrives for generations.
