\nFriends of the Sacramento Public Library is proud to s erve as a community ambassador for the Library. Our volunteer activities h elp the Library expand the materials and programs serving our diverse comm unity beyond those normally included in the Library?s operating budget. We also advocate on behalf of increased funding for the Library through our public relations initiatives and publications.
\nWe believe that pub lic libraries play an important role in giving everyone a chance to succee d because they provide free access to materials and resources. We share th e Library's belief that reading is fundamental to children's well-being\, and that our community has a responsibility to ensure that all of our chil dren learn to read fluently starting no later than first grade.
