Private Support Matters

Every gift matters. Every giver makes a difference. In recent years, between 15-20% of the Wellesley Free Library’s operating needs have been met through private gifts and grants.  The WFL Foundation works closely with library leadership to identify ways to initiate innovation, deepen the impact of our programs and elevate the library experience for our patrons.

At the WFL Foundation GALA this past spring, library supporters gave generously to support the purchase of two NAO robots. These hi-tech ambassadors bring digital literacy to life, broadening the library’s technology programs and creating new opportunities for outreach to our community!

Thank You! Your generosity truly makes the difference between a good library and a great one. #privatesupportmatters
