Library fundraising campaign offers numerous sponsorship opportunities
The Friends of the Kingsport Public Library, in partnership with the City of Kingsport, recently launched a $1.5 million fundraising campaign to help fund a multi-million dollar renovation and upgrade of the Kingsport Public Library.
The “Library of the Future” fundraising campaign is now underway and aims to help fund the first major renovation of the library in more than 30 years.
The campaign has numerous sponsorship opportunities at various levels of contribution. Everyone from individuals to small businesses to large corporations has the opportunity to sponsor a space in Kingsport’s newly renovated and expanded library.
Various sponsorship opportunities include:
$15,000 and under – the media room, phone booth, break room, study room and supervisors office.
$15,000 to $100,000 – the welcome desk, tech center, board room, information services, graphic novels and the large conference room.
$100,000 and above – fiction collection, non-fiction collection, teen maker space, children’s area and the main auditorium.
The renovation project will include many key improvements, such as
- Doubling the size of the children’s area.
