About The Foundation
The Sacramento Literacy Foundation, formerly the Sacramento Public Library Foundation has raised more than $11 million for the Sacramento Public Library and recently has changed its name and broadened its focus on Literacy.
Revenue is generated by the Foundation through an annual giving program supported by more than 5,000 donors; major gifts from individuals including donor-named and donor-advised funds; foundation grants and corporate sponsorships; direct mail; and many planned giving opportunities including outright gifts of securities and gifts of life insurance, bequests, Revocable Living Trusts, Charitable Gift Annuities, Charitable Remainder Trusts as well as gifts of property.
The Foundation is an independent charitable organization and as of February 2020, is not endorsed by, sponsored by, or affiliated with the Sacramento Public Library Authority or the Sacramento Public Library.
