The exclusive purpose of The Ashtabula County District Library Foundation, a 501(c)3 organization, is to promote the development and improve the service capabilities of the Ashtabula County District Library system by providing financial resources for programs, services, and capital improvement projects beyond the public resources available to the Ashtabula County District Library system. In implementing that purpose the Corporation shall solicit, stimulate, and encourage the gift of funds, endowments, and bequests to the Corporation and to conduct such other fund-raising activities as may be appropriate.

Goals:

  • Raise awareness and funds for the Foundation and for Library projects.
  • Encourage public interest in the value of the Ashtabula County District Library.
  • Advocate for the Library and its programs.
  • Develop an ongoing funding plan to enhance Library services.
