“Thank you for offering us a place where our kids can read and dream and grow.” – Tanya, mum of two young children
Libraries are about so much more than books, aren’t they?
They’re about movies and music and games. They’re about talks and seeds and surfboards too. All kinds of things you’d never imagine.
But really, they’re not about things at all.
They’re about stories and learning and ideas. They’re about sharing and helping each other out. They’re about meeting people, talking to them, and growing as individuals. They’re about connection and belonging.
But perhaps most of all, libraries are about imagining.
Imagining a world outside ourselves. Imagining a better future for ourselves, and each other. Imagining, what if?
Who and what would we be without them?
Please will you support the Myli Community Appeal with a donation today, and help to keep imagination alive.
Your donation helps us build on the great services we already provide. It can help provide more things like Wi-Fi access and more study spaces, creating more safe and fun places for children, or offer more free Tech Talks to help people learn new skills. Every contribution helps us do even more for our community.
We currently only accept monetary donations. Your contributions help us support all Myli branches and ensure resources are directed where they’re needed most to better serve our communities.
We appreciate the generosity of our community, but we’re unable to accept donations of books or any other physical items. Our collections are carefully developed to ensure they remain current and tailored to the needs of our community. If you’d like to pass your items on, we recommend donating them to local charities, op shops, or community groups.
Our preference is for members to donate via PayPal. We can accept cash donations. However, donors who wish to claim their donation at tax time will need to donate online, as we are unable to issue tax receipts for cash contributions.
Yes, PayPal will issue an automatic receipt to the donor via email once the transaction is complete. We cannot provide a tax receipt for cash donations, so it is recommended that donations are made online instead.
All donations over $2 made via the PayPal link are tax deductible. Unfortunately, we cannot provide tax receipts for cash donations.
This campaign is designed to support general library services and programs, so donations cannot be allocated to specific projects or initiatives. However, all contributions directly benefit the community by helping us enhance our offerings. For more information, please see our donation policy: https://myli.au/policies
You can support us by spreading the word about our services, participating in programs, or sharing our fundraising efforts with others.
We’d love to hear from you. Please let us know if you have a question that is not included here or if you have any feedback, please email us at support@myli.org.au or call 1800 44 6954.
