The Acton Memorial Library Foundation, Inc. (AMLF) was founded in 1991 as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to maintaining and improving the quality of the Acton Memorial Library by providing additional funding to complement, but not supplant, the public funding the library receives.
The Acton Memorial Library is a community resource open to everyone. Your tax-deductible donation, no matter the amount, will have a positive impact on the quality of your library.
Annual Appeal
Each year, AMLF solicits donations to supplement the library's budget through an annual appeal. Contributions are used to expand print and digital collections for adults and children, including books, reference materials, subscriptions, large-print books, new technology, and library programs.
Endowment Fund
AMLF supports the library for our own and future generations through an endowment fund. Donors giving $1,000 or more are acknowledged on the plaques in the library.
TBA Fund
If you prefer, you may mail a check to AMLF, PO Box 2781, Acton MA 01720.
