FOR OUR LIBRARIES. FUNDRAISING CHALLENGE

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Fundraising Challenge!

The For Our Libraries Fundraising Challenge has now ended. Challenge winners will be contacted shortly about their prize.

While the Fundraising Challenge is over, you can still support libraries and the American Library Association! Become a supporter and help ALA continue to fight for federal library funding, defend the freedom to read, and provide public programs that promote diverse books, digital equity, and lifelong learning.

ALA IN ACTION

The American Library Association is working every day to ensure that everyone—regardless of background or zip code—has access to information, ideas, and opportunity.

Here’s what your support helps make possible:

  • Lawsuits to protect federal library funding
  • Nationwide campaigns to fight book bans and defend the freedom to read
  • Emergency grants for libraries recovering from natural disasters
  • Public programs that promote diverse books, digital equity, and lifelong learning

Together, we’re building stronger libraries, stronger communities, and a stronger democracy.
