Get Involved

There are many ways that you can support the library and in doing so, help your community, help yourself and make a difference in the lives of those in need.

As a library user, you know that the library is at the heart of community, culture and education. But not everyone understands this. Libraries need people to get involved and spread the word about the value of the library to neighbors, friends and decision-makers.

You can support the library by donating your money or your time. Library lovers are invited to attend or contribute to an event sponsored by the Monterey Park Library Foundation. These dedicated volunteers advocate for libraries, raise funds and sponsor activities. And volunteering your time can prove to be an incredibly rewarding experience as your actions can make a measurable impact in someone else's life. Your generosity and involvement will provide benefits to you as well as the community.
