No matter what’s happening in the world around us, one thing remains constant: Baltimore County Public Library is here to connect our community. Every day, our branches bring people together — through stories, conversations, technology, learning and the simple joy of sharing space with others. Connection is the heart of what we do, and it’s what makes our libraries such an essential part of life in Baltimore County.
This season, you have a special opportunity to strengthen those connections. Longtime library supporter Anne West has generously offered a $100,000 challenge grant to support Foundation for Baltimore County Public Library’s Connections Start Here campaign. Every dollar you give will be matched, up to $100,000 — doubling your impact on the programs, resources and spaces that keep our community strong.
Your support helps fund the work that brings us together: author events that spark conversation, multicultural celebrations that honor our diversity, digital access that keeps everyone connected and welcoming spaces where neighbors meet, learn and grow.
To receive the full match, we must reach our goal by December 31.
If the library has made a difference in your life, or in the life of someone you love, we hope you’ll take this opportunity to make twice the impact.
Because at Baltimore County Public Library, connections start here — and with your support, they can reach even farther.
