Support the Library

Wayne Lemoine Legacy Fund

Support children’s programming

Wayne was part of the magic of Swan’s Island. He loved life; he lived for this island community. The fund will be used initially to support everything we offer to children – a brand new after-school art club, summer programming that combines learning and art, and a wide array of materials for children including books, movies, toys, computer games, and more.

Buy a Brick

Support our endowment

Please help the Library “Pave the Way to the Future” by purchasing one or more bricks. The bricks will line the walkway to the internet porch. Your generosity will support our current programs and services and ensure the future of the Library for generations to come.

There are many ways to support SIES.  The Town of Swan’s Island donates $18,000 each year to support library services for the community.  The remainder of our budget needs to be raised through donations and grants.  Monetary donations are fully deductible according to IRS regulations.

Financial Contributions

Your donation is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.  Please contact your tax preparer or accountant for answers to questions you may have about your financial gift to SIES.

Volunteers keep our organization running. Visit our volunteer page for more information.
