What is the Library Foundation?

The Foundation is a non-profit that supplements the Mary Riley Styles Public Library funding from the City, providing books, equipment, activities, and programs. The Foundation is supported by Falls Church organizations and by Library users like you.

Your library needs your support

Due to rising costs of books and other materials, Mary Riley Styles Public Library needs your help more than ever. This year, the Library is specifically asking for the Foundation to help fund English language classes and the “Lucky Day” collection which gives patrons the change to check out books that normally have longer waiting lists. To help, please click "Donate" in the menu above and give what you can.   

Help us reach 5%

Fewer than 1.5 percent of Library patrons support the Foundation. If we could reach 5 percent support, the Foundation could expand programs and provide more seating for patrons. Please consider making your donation recurring. Whether once a month or once a year, every bit of support helps.
