ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD, THE STAFF, AND ESPECIALLY THE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE PLEASE ACCEPT OUR GRATITUDE FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE HOYT LIBRARY.
EXPLAINING THE ANNUAL FUND DRIVE 2010
OCCASIONALLY I AM ASKED WHY WE CONDUCT AN ANNUAL FUND DRIVE IN ADDITION TO A CAPITAL, OR—AS ONE OF MY FRIENDS RECENTLY PUT IT, “WHY DO YOU NEED MORE MONEY, THE LIBRARY IS ALREADY THERE?” THAT IS A VALID QUESTION AND THE ANSWER IS “BECAUSE THE PROCEEDS FROM EACH ARE USED FOR VERY DIFFERENT THINGS.”
THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN FUNDS ARE USED TO PROVIDE ALL THAT YOU NEED TO READ—ALL YOU NEED TO USE—AND ALL YOU NEED TO DO IN YOUR LIBRARY. IT ALLOWS US TO GIVE YOU THE BEST POSSIBLE MATERIALS FOR LIVING, LEARNING AND LIFE ENRICHMENT.
THE ANNUAL FUND DONATIONS ARE USED TO HELP US RUN THE LIBRARY AND TO ADD TO OUR COLLECTION. IT HELPS US WITH UPKEEP, MAINTENANCE, CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS, ADDITIONAL BOOKS, PERIODICALS AND SPECIAL LIBRARY MATERIALS THAT WE SIMPLY HAVE NO BUDGET FOR BUT REALLY NEED TO HAVE. IT IS A CRITICAL PART OF WHAT WE DO ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASIS.
AGAIN, THANK YOU ALL, WE WOULD NOT BE HERE WITHOUT YOU.
SIMPLY
