Join the Friends of the Carlyle Campbell Library

 

Friends logo

The following membership categories are available:

  • Student Member ($10): for current students
  • Contributing Member ($25)
  • Family Contributing Member ($40): allows an additional family member to enjoy the benefits of Friends membership.
  • Sustaining Member ($100): for those who wish to make a contribution over and above regular memberships. Sustaining members receive two dinner tickets each year, to be used during the year.**Per IRS guidelines, we estimate the fair market value of dinner tickets to be $44 (two tickets at $22 each). Meredith College is a 501(c)(3) public charity; therefore, Sustaining Members may claim a donation deduction for $66, the difference between your $100 contribution and the value of the benefits you received.

  • Life Member ($500): may be made in one payment or installments within one membership year.  To set up installments, use https://community.meredith.edu/SupportMC and specify Friends of the Library as the designation, or call the Institutional Advancement Office (919-760-8374) to get the payments set up.
  • Life Family Membership ($750): allows two family members to receive life membership for one payment.  Existing life members may add a family member for $250.
