The West Milford Township Library recognized the Friends of the West Milford Township Library for all the work they do on the libray’s behalf.
The Friends of Libraries is a nonprofit 501(c) (3) organization that plays a vital role in public libraries across the country. The Friends are volunteers who devote their time to library programming, fundraising, donations, and advocacy.
The Friends of the West Milford Township Library, work tirelessly to assist the library. They give their time, effort, and money to serve the community without asking for anything in return.
