Our Mission
To Strengthen the Library is Service to Our Community
The Friends of the Coastal Branch Library, Inc. is a non profit organization whose members are full and part-time residents of the Santa Rosa Beach Communities in Walton County, Florida. Our purpose is to raise funds for the support of the Coastal Branch Library and to foster the use of the library’s facilities by residents and visitors through public relations and community consciousness raising activities.
The Friend’s Board meets monthly to plan, execute, and evaluate fundraising projects and community relations efforts. All proceeds are available to the Library to help fund programs for all ages as well as capital contributions for larger projects. We are a 501(c)(3) and operate a book shop within the Library and sell donated gently used books at discounted prices. Our primary fund raising events has been one or two large book sales a year, our relationships with Grant awards from our community partners and support through memberships to the Friends of the Coastal Branch Library.
