FRIENDS OF THE HOMER LIBRARY Our mission is to provide support for the Homer Public Library programs and services, to raise funds that enrich the library experience, and to promote the use and enjoyment of the library. |
In addition to our memberships, we rely on donations to help provide the library with necessary resources and materials that would otherwise exceed its budget. For example, you can donate money towards the purchase of books, or you can donate money to be used for our ever popular youth programs. Donations help us be flexible and able to readily respond to the ever-changing information and programming needs of our community. When you make a donation to the Friends of the Homer Library, you are making an investment in your local library and in building a community dedicated to lifelong learning. Thank you so much for your support. |
DONOR STORIESMy brother Jack and
I, June 2017 Judy GonsalvesMy donor story begins with, sadly, an ending. I lost my older brother Jack, on Dec 23, 2019. We were seven siblings; all relatively close in age, growing up on large ranches out in the country. We had plenty of chores; yet we managed to find a good amount of fun and maybe even a little bit of mischief during those endlessly long, warm, golden California days of our childhood. Even as we went our separate directions as adults, our large family gatherings continue to be reliably full of life with laughter, food, drink, often dancing, and much reminiscing. |
