Annual Appeal Campaign
Through past annual appeals, the Foundation for Geneva Public Library (FGPL) has supported specific needs of the Library such as the renovation of the Children’s Floor and the replacement of the Library’s heating and air conditioning system. In order to better serve their mission, FGPL has shifted their annual appeal towards support for the building of an endowment for the Library. Your gift to FGPL today is a gift for the Library's future. For a list of previous donors: 2016 to 2017 List 2017 to 2018 List 2018 to 2019 List Giving to FGPL
