Overview

Mission

The Friends of the Woodcrest Community Library is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting and enhancing the resources of our local library. We believe that a strong library is the heart of a strong community. Through fundraising, volunteering, and advocacy, we ensure that our library remains a vibrant hub for learning, creativity, and connection for residents of all ages.

What it reported doing in 2025

Our Summer Reading Adventure is our largest individual special program and we had more than 500 families participate this past year. We have special presenters, fun programs, and incentives and rewards for reading. The purpose of the program is to prevent summer slide, which is loss of learning while school is not in session but we have programs for the whole family.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 80% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
