A $50,000 matching opportunity has been pledged to the Warsaw Community Public Library Capital Improvement Fund, a component fund at the Kosciusko County Community Foundation. The $50,000 gift will match dollar-for-dollar donations to the fund through December 31, 2026.
The Warsaw Community Public Library Capital Improvement Fund was established by Friends of the Library to provide support to the Warsaw Community Public Library for capital improvements including but not limited to equipment repair or purchase and facility renovations or improvements.
The donor, Ora Waverly Conlan, has fond memories of the Warsaw library, remembering her childhood library card number to this day, even though she is now 92-years-old. Conlan acknowledges the library as the place where she and her brother received their early childhood educations through books and programs. She hopes that her gift will help inspire others to preserve the historic Carnegie Library building, but more importantly to ensure that the library continues to serve as an educational, cultural, social, and civic hub for generations to come.
