Support the Library
Become a Friend of the Library
Everyone who supports the library with a donation is a Friend of the Library. The Friends welcome unrestricted financial gifts and bequests of any amount to support the library’s programs and services for children, teens, and adults. Thanks to the Friends, the library can go far beyond what town funding would support.
Learn more about being a Friend, read the Friends’ Annual Appeal Letter, and/or make a donation online.
The Friends of the Georgetown Peabody Library, a 501(c)(3) organization of volunteers, has been in place for 60+ years and continues to fund or subsidize the library’s activities. Contributions to the Annual Appeal are accepted at any time.
Amazon through Wowbrary
At no cost to you, shopping at Amazon can help our library. We receive back a percentage of your purchase price whenever you begin your Amazon shopping at wowbrary.org/georgetown.
We benefit from Amazon not only when you buy books, but also movies, CDs, electronics, appliances, printer supplies, gifts, and more! Every bit you do for us helps!
Financial and Memorial Gifts
The Board of Trustees of the Georgetown Peabody Library and the Friends of the Georgetown Peabody Library share a common mission to support free and equitable community access to library services, collections, programs, and facilities. The Library’s Gift Policy outlines how charitable gifts, including bequests, are accepted, administered, and used by both organizations.
If the donation is intended to buy a book in memory of someone through the Memorial Gifts Fund, please reach out to the Library Director to discuss details.
