Make a Gift to the Foundation

We will send you a receipt for tax purposes, along with our grateful thanks. We are currently fundraising for three large projects:

• Solar roofing project for panels on the East, South and West roofs of the library. We are raising money to apply towards matching state grants. When funded, this project would offset 80% of electric costs and enhance local resiliency by continuing to offer services like wi-fi during power outages. This also sets the stage for future grant funding and fundraising for an electric bookmobile!
• Digitization of all Antigo Daily Journal and Antigo Republican newspapers currently on microfilm back to the 1980s.
• Redesign of library greenspace for outdoor programming seating and accessible shelter.

We recommend that you consult your attorney when considering any sizeable gifts, especially through bequests.

The Antigo Public Library has received support from private individuals in addition to its public funding.

The Antigo Public Library Foundation assures that contributions will supplement, but never replace, public funds.

Helen Tomany chose to give the community the chance to enjoy learning as much as she did. Her $250,000 bequest to the Antigo Public Library provided the impetus to construct the new facility, with additional dollars coming from the city, county, and a spirited fundraising effort on behalf of the Antigo Public Library Foundation.
