Support Your Library through TD Bank
Are you a TD Bank Customer??
You can support your library without spending a dime!
The Wiggin Memorial Library is now part of the TD Bank. You can choose the library as one of your supported organizations and TD Bank will make an annual donation to the library. It costs you nothing and the only thing you need to do is contact TD Bank (ANY branch, anywhere) once and let them know that you want to be part of the Affinity Program and add Wiggin Memorial Library (Code: A2215) as your affiliated organization. Tell your friends and family (anywhere) who use TD Bank that they can support your library too!!

Shop Online and Support the Library Use Charity Blast as an entryway to your favorite stores and a portion of everything you spend will come to support the Wiggin Memorial Library. It doesn't cost you extra and you don't have to fight the crowds at the mall!
How Does It Work? Click onto Charity Blast (http://www.charityblast.com), choose "Wiggin Memorial Library" as your charity and then go on to your favorite shopping places. So, if you are planning to buy a Nikon Coolpix L22 Digital Camera for someone on your list this year, you can go through CharityBlast to get to Target, purchase the camera online (saving $30.00!) and the library will automatically get $1.20! That may not sound like much, but it really adds up. The donations to the library are on your total purchase, so when you buy a TV, some DVDs and a new case for your iPhone at BestBuy, the library could be getting over $100 from your purchase alone. see more examples & stores
There are more than 80 great stores available including:
- Apple & iTunes
- Best Buy
- Disney Store
- Gap
- Kohl's
- Macy's
- Old Navy
- Target
- Timberland

Gifts to Your Library Your gift to the library will make a big difference in what we can offer to the community. We're challenging 100% of the community to give! Every gift - no matter the size - makes a difference. Money will be used for comfortable seating, equipment, A/V systems, display units and more. Our overall fundraising goal is $60,000.00 and we can't reach it without your help! Remember,
gifts to the library are tax deductible.
Ways to Give: Pledged Gifts: Want to make your gift over time? No problem. Pledge a total amount to give to the Library and choose a schedule of when you will make installments towards the gift. Give us $5,000.00 - $2,500.00 in 2009 and $2,500.00 in 2010. Or give us $400.00 by giving $100.00 in January, April, August and November of 2011. Whatever your budget, we can accommodate you. Please contact Lesley Kimball, Library Director (772-4346, or e-mail director@WigginML.org) or Bruce, Capital Campaign Chair and Library Trustee (775-7415, or e-mail).
General Gifts: Write a check for any amount to the Wiggin Memorial Library, and include in the memo portion "Capital Campaign". Send checks to: Wiggin Memorial Library, Fundraising Committee, 10 Bunker Hill Ave., Stratham, NH 03885. We will send you a letter with our tax status information for your accounting purposes.
Sponsor Gifts: Want to sponsor something specific in the Library? A part of the collection? Or, a room or a space? We can work with you to make that happen in a way that is meaningful for you. Please contact Lesley Kimball, Library Director (772-4346, or e-mail director@WigginML.org) or Bruce, Capital Campaign Chair and Library Trustee (775-7415, or e-mail).
Matching Gifts: Many companies offer matching gift opportunities to their employees. Ask your Human Resources department if you can participate in such a program. Matching gift programs mean that any amount that you donate to the Library will be matched by your company. If you give the Library $250.00, the Library will receive a total of $500.00. Usually all that is required is a short form.
Capital Gifts: If you or your business have the means to make a large capital gift, we will be happy to work with you to design recognition that will benefit you or your business as well as the Library's future. Please contact Bruce Cotter, Capital Campaign Chair and Library Trustee (775-7415, or e-mail) to discuss a plan that will work for you.
