ABOUT US
The Friends of South Whatcom Library (FoSWL) is a non-profit organization composed of volunteers from across the Geneva, Glenhaven and Sudden Valley communities.
We love the South Whatcom Library and are committed to supporting the library and our communities through raising awareness of library services, by providing volunteer support for library events and activities, and by raising funds to support some of the library’s unbudgeted needs.
And we enjoy working together…
