Organizations Filed Purposes:
TO CREATE A LEGACY FOR THE FUTURE OF BOTH FRAMINGHAM LIBRARIES, WITH AN ULTIMATE GOAL OF CREATING AN ENDOWMENT TO SUPPLEMENT FUNDS RECEIVED FROM THE TOWN OF FRAMINGHAM.
THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO FUNDRAISE FOR THE ONGOING MAINTENANCE OF THE MCAULIFFE BRANCH LIBRARY. CONSTRUCTION WAS COMPLETED IN EARLY 2016 AND THE MCAULIFFE BRANCH LIBRARY OPENED IN FEBRUARY 2016. COMMEMORATIVE SIGNAGE WAS ALSO PURCHASED FOR THE LIBRARY DURING 2016.
THE ORGANIZATION RAISED FUNDS TO TRANSFORM THE CHILDREN'S CRAFT ROOM IN THE MAIN LIBRARY INTO A FULLY-EQUIPPED MAKERSPACE FOR PATRONS OF ALL AGES. MAKERSPACES ARE COLLABORATIVE WORK SPACES FOR MAKING, LEARNING, EXPLORING AND CREATING USING A VARIETY OF TECHNOLOGY, TOOLS, AND MATERIALS. THESE SPACES HELP PEOPLE ACQUIRE STEAM SKILLS (SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, THE ARTS, AND MATH). MAKERSPACES ENCOURAGE HANDS-ON LEARNING AND CRITICAL THINKING, AND THEY EVEN HELP TO BOOST SELF-CONFIDENCE. THE CITY OF FRAMINGHAM FUNDED THE PHYSICAL CHANGES TO THE MAKERSPACE ROOM. WE CALL OUR MAKERSPACE THE SPARKLAB.
