In 1992, a group of library patrons banded together to form an organization to promote the interest and welfare of the Bennington Area Libraries.
The village (of Bennington, NE) has grown into a city. The area the library serves has grown tremendously. The Friends of the Bennington Area Libraries need your support and donations to help with servicing this area.
Friends of the Bennington Area Libraries solicit and receive contributions and/or gifts from individuals, foundations, associations, and public and private corporations for the benefit of area libraries.
The Friends of the Bennington Area Libraries is a 501(3)c non-profit organization which can only accept gifts and manage funds intended for the benefit of the area libraries. As a designated non-profit organzation, it is recognized by the United States Internal Revenue Service and your gifts qualify for the most favorable tax treatment provided by the law.
