Support Simpson

Donate Online

 

There are many ways you can help to ensure that the Joseph T. Simpson Public Library will continue to provide valued quality library services for generations to come.  Online donations are processed through PayPal. You do not need a PayPal account in order to make an online donation.  Please indicate in which fund you’d like your donation to be placed. Here is a description of our various funds.

 

Friends of the Library Membership

Every great library needs great friends! And the Simpson Library has an outstanding Friends group that provides thousands of dollars in financial and volunteer support to the library each year. The Friends of the Joseph T. Simpson Public Library are a membership organization with annual dues. Dues range from a $20 minimum up to any amount you wish to give. Renewal letters are sent on an annual basis requesting renewal of your membership. Friends members receive an invitation to attend their Members Only Preview Nights held on the evening prior to each of their three books sales held in February, June and October.  Join the Friends now and pay by credit card through PayPal, or print the membership brochure (PDF, 279KB, 2 pages) and mail in your membership dues.

 

General Operations

Donations for general operations are what enable the library to continue functioning on a daily basis. This covers all of our expenses from staffing to utilities, from materials to programs, and from property maintenance to computer services.

 

Endowment

Donations to the Endowment Fund are placed into our fund established with the Mechanicsburg Area Foundation. This is a permanent fund that provides income each year to support the library. An endowment provides essential stability, grows over time, and is a permanent source of funding to help meet both current and future needs. Contributions to the endowment are a great way to leave a legacy with your charitable giving.
