Because of your generosity, we are able to...
Inspire Early Learners
Because a parent is a child's first and best teacher. Parents and caregivers are given tools to help prepare their children for success. A variety of children's programming builds crucial early literacy skills and a strong foundation for learning.

DonateJust One small way Your Donations Help
The Phoenix Public Library Foundation supports Kindergarten Bootcamp, a year-round program that is the centerpiece of early learning initiatives in the City of Phoenix. Kindergarten Bootcamp gives parents tools, information, and activities to help prepare their children for school success in a fun, educational, and interactive setting. Bootcamp consists of seven, 1-hour sessions for children who are preparing to enter kindergarten. Under the guidance of an early literacy specialist, parents and caregivers work with their children on foundational skills which have been demonstrated to be the most important for both a successful kindergarten and school experience.
Capital Campaign
The Board and staff of the Phoenix Public Library Foundation have launched a capital campaign to bring exceptional preschool learning environments to all 17 Phoenix Public Library locations.
The initiative is a priority for the Phoenix Public Library and the Library Foundation because immersing children in rich, stimulating, and interactive environments supports school readiness skills.
