The New Friends of the Beaverton City Library (NFBCL) is a Beaverton community of caring book-lovers making the joy of reading accessible and sustainable for everyone. Since 2002, the NFBCL has donated >$500K in support of the Beaverton City Library. Our donations have supported a wide array of services and programs, including early literacy stations and art programs. We have also met immediate needs with the purchase of items including printers, book carts, and e-readers. We also support organizations throughout the community with donations of relevant books where the need is greatest. These organizations have included hospitals, transitional housing resources, and veterans affairs, as well as those supporting people experiencing houselessness, children of incarcerated parents, and those impacted by severe weather conditions (including the Beaverton Severe Weather Center and Southern Oregon Relief Team).
