Friends Volunteers at the Silent Auction

Our Mission

The Friends promote and support the Newton Free Library’s programs, functions, resources, and services. We initiate activities to enhance community awareness of literary, artistic, and cultural programs at the library.

In support of our Mission, the Friends:

  • Fund children’s, tween and teen programs

  • Contribute to the Library’s annual collection budget

  • Raise funds through Book Sales, Memberships, and Special Events

  • Advocate for the Library as an independent non-profit 501(c)3
