About

The Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library Foundation has quietly funded more than $870,000 in grants to the Library over their 20-year history. Generous bequests from Lora Hussey, Olive Hoffman, and Mr. and Mrs. James Mayfield provided the Foundation with its beginnings and inspired the founders to set the following prevailing mission: Build an enduring source of assets from charitable donors to benefit the Library; Provide responsible stewardship of gifts donated; Promote leadership in addressing Library matters; Award grants which nurture the Library. As our community continues to grow and the needs of our residents become more diverse, the demands on our Library multiply. Recognizing this growth, the quiet professionals on the Foundation Board have decided to publicly share the good work they are doing. Fellow philanthropists who love our Library are now invited to join their effort and give back to this important community asset.
