Wyoming State Legistlature "Endowment Challenge" - Completed September 2016

We are very excited to announce that our Endowment Challenge has been completed. The Wyoming State Legislature had provided a wonderful opportunity for county libraries by setting aside $12.1 million in matching funds to encourage the establishment and growth of library endowments.  


The Lincoln County Library Foundation was eligible to receive a two-to-one match of up to $343,913.  We have reached this goal.  The funds donated to the Lincoln County Library Foundation are managed by the Wyoming Community Foundation.
