Richmond Public Library Foundation relies on donations to support Richmond Public Library’s mission to Inform, Enrich, and Empower.

 

Your donations support valuable library programs like:

VSU choir singing at Main Library

Offers free concerts highlighting numerous genres to the public since 1973. If you can’t join us in person, you can watch online Richmond Public Library’s YouTube Channel.

Richmond Room and Memory Lab

The Richmond Room is home to Richmond Public Library’s Business, Law, and Nonprofit resources. Also a good entry point to the Memory Lab, and a place to start your genealogy, family, or neighborhood research in our Local History and Special Collections.

Early Learning Summer Intern Program

Summer is a key time for libraries, children, and literacy. With your support, the Foundation offers a structured, mentored, and paid college intern program. This program increases library capacity and helps young families connect with literacy resources and programs.
