And...It's Not Too Late to Become a Luncheon Sponsor!
Sponsorships begin at $250 and include complimentary seating. As a sponsor, you will receive publicity and be featured on signage at the luncheon, and can bypass first-come, first-served ticketing, a key benefit as the luncheon typically sells out.

Board members Margaret DeSiervo (margaretdesiervo@yahoo.com, 883-2722) and Nancy Wright (nprw@aol.com, 883-8418) are happy to answer sponsorship questions.

Founded in 1966, the Friends of the Library is an independent nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that supports the library through volunteerism, fundraising, programming, outreach and advocacy. Community members interested in becoming involved in the FOL please email fol@pwpl.org or call the library's Administration Office at 883-4400, ext. 101.
