Sometimes supporting Boise libraries is as easy as enjoying a meal or raising a glass. Local businesses have partnered with the Foundation to turn dining out into an opportunity to give back. Through programs like Round Up for Charity at Sockeye Brewing and Powerful Pints at Lost Grove Brewing, customers can round up their bills to support Boise libraries. Bardenay has also hosted a special give-back night, donating 20% of the evening’s receipts to the Foundation. Watch for future partnerships and discover how your next night out could help support Boise libraries.

Each spring, Idaho Gives brings communities across the state together for a celebration of nonprofit giving... and Boise library supporters show up! During our most recent campaign, 50+ donors contributed more than $7,000 to the Foundation, helping us continue investing in the programs and resources that make our libraries such an important part of our community.

We put a little FUN in fundraising for Giving Tuesday! As part of our $25 for ’25 year-end campaign, we gathered for a community bingo night filled with games, prizes and plenty of library love. We’re especially grateful to the local businesses that donated an incredible collection of prizes — and to Payette Brewing for the location — and to everyone who came out to play and support Boise libraries.
