Give Through Your Place of Employment
Sponsorship
Companies and organizations that sponsor Library events and programs not only gain positive visibility through the sponsorship, they also gain the benefit of providing needed services in the community. There are so many opportunities for sponsorships, including but not limited to:
- Early Literacy:
- Literary Arts:
For more information please call or email either Dick Pahle (704) 416-0617 or Karen Beach (704) 416-0618 in the Library’s development office.
Matching Gifts
Many employers ‘match’ gifts made by their employees. This effectively doubles the impact of your gift. Please check with your human resources department to see if your employer is a 'matching gift' company and if so, ask for the procedure and/or paperwork to secure the matching gift.
Corporate Membership
As a Corporate Member your company or organization can provide long term support for The Library in its quest to build a highly literate and educated community and contribute to the economic health and social and cultural capital throughout the Library’s reach. By making a contribution you can impact children whose reading levels increase due to Library programs and adults who utilize the library’s free services to begin and build on careers.

Corporate Foundation Grants/Gifts
Foundation and corporate grants have enabled us to create and/or enhance programs for an expanding population. Examples include the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation Fund for bilingual orientation and Storytimes to Go!
They have also helped us to keep pace with the rapid development of new communications technologies. Examples include The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation for system wide computer replacement.
