Bake Sales
A least 2 bake sales are held each year at the library. Volunteers bake goodies and prepare food in addition to staff the tables.
Basket Raffle
Our largest fundraiser of the year. Over 50 donated baskets are entered into the raffle which takes place in November. Winners are drawn in mid-December
Book Sale
We set up at the Milton Yard Sale Day to sell books.
Activities Fair
We attend the Activities Fair in September to promote our organization.
Town Scarecrows
Uncle Elmer and our free little Library as part of the town wide Scarecrow event in October.
Volunteer/Donor Appreciation
Major donors are recognized by being added to the Giving Tree. Treats are set out for all Friends volunteers during National Friends Week.
A community of
FRIENDS
The library is a vital part of any town. The Friends work all year long, in whatever capacity they can - volunteering at fundraisers such as bake sales, book sales, our very successful basket raffle, and selling merchandise at our swag store. We're always developing new ideas. Growing our Friends' membership brings new and bright ideas flowing in so we can reach every part of our community. Do you have some ideas for your library? Become a Friend of the Milton Public Library!
Here are a few things we have been working on.
