What do the Friends Provide?

The Friends actively support many library programs, events and cultural offerings to ensure continued quality library service. 

The Friends initiated the Raise-the-Roof Campaign and worked tirelessly to raise almost $2,000,000 for the new main branch. 

The Friends have made so many of the Chicopee Public Library's wishes possible.  Here are some examples:

  • Restoration of the Bellamy, Robinson and Stearns portraits with the addition of beautiful new frames
  • Re-usable family passes for area museums including the Children's Museum in Holyoke, the Springfield Museums, Eric Carle Museum, Hancock Shaker Museum, and Forest Park Zoo
  • Books from Gold and Silver Sponsoors of the golf tournament
  • Continued Fundraising Efforts for the Raise the Roof Campaign
  • Support, food & refreshments for programs run by the Library staff
  • Yamaha Baby Grand Piano for the Community Room
  • Assorted Library "Wish List" items requested by Library staff:
    • Wood bookcase for children's supplies
    • HP Photosmart Printer
    • Extensive collection of seasonal & decorative Ellison Die-Cuts
    • Large format Laminating Machine
    • Canon Digital Camera
    • Puppets for Storytime, Displays and Special Events
