Contributions support ALA’s efforts to provide free public awareness materials and resources directly to libraries as well as the Association’s national initiatives such as National Library Week and Library Card Sign-Up Month. These special initiatives have been designed to increase public awareness of the importance of libraries as great democratic institutions, serving people of every age, income level, location, ethnicity or physical ability.
When an individual, company or foundation becomes a Library Champion, they make a positive impact on libraries and the lives of their community members every day. At libraries, children overcome hurdles and become stronger readers. Seniors and families who are living on less find information and advice. Job seekers find the support, career skills and Internet access they need. Students and faculty consult with library personnel to enrich their research.
