About the Foundation and Friends
About The Fort Vancouver Regional Library Foundation
The FVRL Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation that supports FVRLibraries in its mission by raising funds through fundraisers such as the annual Authors & Illustrators Dinner. They help expand the impact of public funding, raising private gifts and grants that allow FVRLibraries to grow, innovate, and better serve Southwest Washington communities.
About Friends of the Library Groups
Friends of the Library groups share a common bond of raising funds, awareness, and goodwill for the library, operating as 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations under the umbrella of the Foundation. Each Friends group supports a specific branch and has its own board of directors, by-laws, dues structure and activities.
