The Cobb Library Foundation announced a donation of $26,200 to the Cobb County Public Library. The funds will be used to support the library’s list of projects, which are designed to enhance library services, technology, and programs for the community.
“We are incredibly grateful for the hard work and generosity of our community,” said Sandra Morris, Executive Director of the Cobb Library Foundation. “This donation is a direct result of the support we’ve received from our dedicated sponsors, event attendees, and library patrons. Their commitment to the Cobb County Public Library makes it possible for us to continue our mission of supporting literacy and lifelong learning.”
This year’s fundraising fueled community impact: 4,291 participants logged 2.7 million minutes in the Summer Reading Program, completing 6,409 activities. Supported Teen Book’d and 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten ceremonies, while advancing the bookmobile—outfitting a Sprinter with shelving, carts, wrap, lift, and soon an awning. Funds also enhanced the North Cobb Regional Garden and provided toys, equipment, and resources through the Love Your Library Fundraiser.
What we’ve accomplished thus far is truly inspiring,” Morris added. “Expanding creative spaces, bringing new technology to our branches, celebrating thousands of reading milestones, and building a fully equipped bookmobile. We’ve made incredible strides. The best part? We’re just getting started—2026 is full of exciting possibilities.”
Upcoming fundraisers include a Ghost Tour in September, a shopping day at Merchants Walk in November, and the Book for the Evening Gala in March 2026.
