Mission
Our primary purpose is to support the local library and community with a focus on literacy. The Cascade Friends of the Library is a group comprised 100% of approximately 50 volunteers that make money for the local and district libraries by selling donated used books. In addition to supporting literacy, we help build a sense of community where all feel welcomed and safe. We sponsor programming for ages newborn and up, including programs for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their care partners.
Program accomplishments
- Friends Sponsored a wide variety of programs that impacted people from newborn through senior citizens with a goal to increase literacy and comprehension while building a stronger sense of community. They involved other organizations in the community (such as police and fire departments) as well as local artists that engaged the community in music, dance and in many of the graphic arts. They provided engagement for adults with cognitive challenges, and support for their care partners. Here is a breakdown of the programs by age group with the number of participants in ( ).
