SUPPORT THE LIBRARY

Monetary donations of $10 or more are eligible for a tax deductible receipt.

Sadly, in the March 2013 Provincial budget, the very helpful Community Spirit Grant Program was discontinued. This is bad news for many nonprofit organizations who received grants based on donations made by Albertans. This program encouraged Albertans to be generous.

You will still receive a charitable tax credit when you donate to registered charities - such as your library - but the funds will no longer generate additional "matching" funds from the Province. Please contact the librarian for more information. Thank you.

Donations of books, compact discs, etc., to the library are accepted and are added to the library's collection upon the discretion of the librarian, or are added to the book sale to generate more funds for collection development.
