Hales Corners Library & W. Ben Hunt Center Foundation
"Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much" - Helen Keller
A thriving foundation turns a good library into a great library.
The Hales Corners Public Library & W. Ben Hunt Center Foundation supports and promotes the services, programs, and capital needs of the Library that are backed by the Village of Hales Corners but not typically financed with public funds.
The Foundation gives the community a way to support the Library and the Hunt Center and create a legacy for this support.
The Hales Corners Public Library is one of this community’s most trusted and treasured institutions, and the Hunt Center is home to the Hales Corners Historical Society.
The Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization guided by volunteers who champion the programs and services of the library by raising funds to support the library’s mission.
