WHO WE ARE: Founded in 1982, the Broward Public Library Foundation serves as the fundraising arm for the Broward County Library System. An active board of directors oversees the Foundation, providing input on fundraising initiatives, grantmaking, investments, and program funding. Through the generosity of donors, the Broward Public Library Foundation is able to underwrite numerous programs and services that complement those already funded by Broward County tax dollars.

SOME PROGRAMS WE SUPPORT: Below are just a few of the impactful Broward County Library programs supported through the Library Foundation.

Books ‘n’ Bears at the Holidays 3,000 disadvantaged preschool children receive a new book and a cuddly teddy bear at holiday parties held at 30 library branches.

SAT/ACT Workshops Free SAT/ACT preparation classes are offered throughout the year at regional libraries for up to 450 high school sophomores and juniors.

StoryBook Festival The StoryBook Festival brings books to life for young minds every year at Southwest Regional Library. The family-friendly festival includes interactive storytellers, performances and the popular Fantasy Forest.

Summer Learning Program An estimated 100,000 children, teens and adults participate in free and accessible programs throughout the summer months to build reading and learning skills.
