Transform Our Treasure: The Campaign for Flint Public Library
In 2020, Flint Public Library began a $30.6 million renovation project to transform library services for this community. Construction is well underway and we’re planning a grand opening in early 2022. We sincerely thank the entire Flint community for its support thus far.
Now we’re asking you to help us raise the final amount. We now need less than $200,000 to complete this exciting transformation of our treasured Library! The Friends of Flint Public Library have committed $50,000 to this work and are challenging community members to join them in supporting the Library renovation.
Every gift gets us closer to our goal…a bright, welcoming, adaptable 21st century library that will serve the people of Flint for decades to come. All gifts will be recognized on the digital donor wall in the renovated Library. You can help by giving a gift as well as by promoting this project to your friends and family via social media. Please get involved!
- Visit YourNewFPL.org to learn more and make an online gift.
- Stop by Flint Public Library @ Courtland Center to make a gift or pick up a gift envelope.
- Send a check, payable to Flint Public Library, 1026 E. Kearsley St., Flint MI 48503. Write “Campaign” in the memo line.
- Download the Social Media Toolkit from YourNewFPL.org to spread the word on Facebook and other social media platforms. Be sure to include #GiveBacktoFPL so we can all see the memories that come flooding in from these posts!
Thank you for your support!
