The Sun Prairie Public Library Foundation is a non-profit organization which oversees and develops an endowment to support the operations of the Sun Prairie Public Library. Established in 1999, the Foundation currently manages more than $5,000,000 in assets. As the endowment grows, the Foundation increases the financial support it provides to the Library.
The Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors. The Board manages the endowment and guides fund-raising activities. Directors serve terms of three years, and each Director serves on one or more committees associated with specific Board activities. The Board meets monthly on the fourth Thursday at 9:00 a.m. (January-October), as well as an additional meeting in December for annual strategic planning on the second Thursday at 8:00 a.m.
Directors bring a variety of skills and knowledge to the Board. The Board benefits from expertise in fundraising, law, event management, public relations, investment strategy, and business development. Each Director brings a willingness to continually maintain and strengthen library service in the Sun Prairie area.
