What Thomas Balch Library Endowment Foundation does
Mission
The Thomas Balch Library Endowment Foundation was established in 2015 to receive, maintain, and administer assets in perpetuity to support programs and outreach services of thomas balch library. Meetings are held at the thomas balch library, as needed, on the third tuesday of alternating months at noon.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
At the board's discretion may provide financial support to expansion of the library programs, provide grants to education, researchers and speakers and provide for purchases and repairs. In 2025, the foundation installed a display case in microfilm room of the library to highlight new acquisitions to the library's collection and will provide matching funds of up to 7,000 toward the conservation of the original desk and chairs from the library's furnishing when it opened in 1922.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2019, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2019, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $1.0M to $1.3M (+28%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
