The Saugus Public Library Foundation was established in 2004 through significant gifts
from the estates of Douglas Lockwood, Josephine Kibbey, and Marie Weeks, as well as funds
turned over by the now-disbanded environmental nonprofit, Noblast, Inc., and smaller individual
trust funds and bequests.
The Foundation provides the means for the library to make long range plans and commitments using the interest earned on the principal balance of the Foundation, and promote and carry out charitable and fundraising activities.
