Join Sierra Madre Library Foundation in Making a Difference
How Much Do We Need
The budget to fully furnish and equip the renovated Sierra Madre Library is $1.5 million.
How Much Have We Raised
We are 60% towards reaching the campaign goal, thanks to the substantial contributions of the Friends of the Sierra Madre Library, Mary Tumilty Fund and Day Trust.
We are grateful to the Rotary Club of Sierra Madre, Sierra Madre Community Foundation, Sierra Madre Historical Preservation Society, Kiwanis Club of Sierra Madre, and Sierra Madre Civic Club for their collective donations of $20,400 to the Sierra Madre Library Foundation!
And we appreciate all of the individuals that have already contributed.
When Do We Need It
Renovations to the library are expected to be completed in early 2026. We are now in the process of initiating orders for the furniture, fixtures and equipment needed to fill the library and make it a strong resource for our community. We need your help now to raise the remaining funds needed for these items.
