Donations

Donations are crucial to the library. Libraries offer free access to all but -- as with any home or business -- it's money that keeps the lights on, heats the rooms, provides the staff, buys reading material and furnishings, and adds value to our annual state report. By making a monetary donation to your public library, you are ensuring that the California community has access to all the services that the library provides. Donations of any amount are highly appreciated during any time of year and are tax deductable. Your generosity influences the amount of state and county aid our library receives. Please remember that our offcial name is California Area Public Library. Your contribution via wccfgives.org on the Washington County Community Foundation's annual giving day in Fall helps us meet goals that bring additional money to your library. Stop by the library to fill out a donation form. You may also donate over the internet using JustGive.org.--> Your contribution via wccfgives.org on the Washington County Community Foundation's annual giving day in Fall (Sept. 12, 2018) helps us meet goals that bring additional money to your library.In additition, we are registered with Benevity, which is useful to know if your employer offers matching grants.

Fundraisers and Offers

Fundraisers are an important source of income for the library. We offer a variety of different fundraisers seasonally and throughout the year. In addition, several businesses have provided special offers that support the library.

Current Fundraisers

  • Our Annual Used Book Sale is held in August during California's Riverfest, as well as sometime in the Spring. But we always have a cart and rack in the library filled with used books, just waiting for you to provide a new home.

  • Litton's Gift Cards - Before you vist that favorite local greenhouse, located on Route 40 in Richeyville, stop by our library to purchase gift certificates. Each $10 certificate contributes $2 to the library. Litton certificates are a handy hostess, birthday or holiday gift. They never expire.
  • Handy last-minute gifts: American Traditions woven baskets in several styles, from $20 to $36. Cloisonne pins with bookmark: feature the library building, of course. Ivory stationary featuring a brown pen-and-ink drawing of our historic building, 2.50. Historic maps of California, $12.

    We also help the Washington County Food Bank (February through March) and the Budd Baer Subaru Share the Love Campaign (November through December).
