Your Generosity Has A Place Here

Public funding supports the Library’s core services. Philanthropy expands what is possible.

The Kitsap Regional Library Foundation connects community generosity with opportunities that help people grow, belong, and thrive.

Our giving societies recognize the many ways donors strengthen the Library, whether through annual support, consistent giving over time, transformational generosity, a future gift, or an early experience with philanthropy. Giving society members receive recognition in the annual donor honor roll, unless anonymity is preferred.

Every donor has a place in this community of support.
