Summer at EPL is Full of Possibility - With Your Support
This summer, the Evanston Public Library is raising $40,000 to support a season full of possibilities, and we need your help. We’re committed to empowering our community to discover, grow, and thrive—helping everyone in Evanston belong, learn, and connect.
Your gift supports impactful summer programming, including literacy support for 60 preschoolers through ABC Boosters, the distribution of 1,500 books through Pop-up Libraries in parks and at community events, and opportunities to engage in Citizen Science projects that promote sustainability. With your support, EPL will also continue to be a space where connection and learning flourish.
Our donors are the key to unlocking the full potential of our library and community. Together, we can ensure that EPL remains a vibrant, inclusive hub where all Evanston residents can access the resources they need to achieve their dreams.
