The mission of The Friends of the Marina Library is to provide advocacy, funding, and volunteer resources to support the Marina Branch Library in order to meet the needs of our community.
As an all-volunteer organization, FOML has benefited greatly from the MCGives! program. Our Big Idea projects are conceptual in nature. We dream about doing new types of programs with specific goals in mind. This year’s grant is to enable FoML to dive deeper into building community through music, history and culture. We hosted a Hawaiian music concert with hula dancing in August 2023. It was a tremendous success. There has been such incredible excitement to expand this type of cultural community building program and we humbly ask for your support.
I love how The Friends of the Marina Library brings the community together! The Hawaiian concert in front of the library was an opportunity for folks to pull up lawn chairs, watch hula, eat shave ice, and celebrate Marina’s Hawaiian culture! Thank you for showcasing the diversity that is Marina!
