[Publib] Names other than Foundation and Friends

[Tim Birch]

Hello Everyone,

We are in the process of forming a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization to
help raise funds for the Daly City (CA) Public Library.  Our attorney
has advised us against naming it a "foundation" due to the fundraising
obligations this legal title would require us to fulfill.  We are not
considering using the term "friends" because we already have such an
organization and they have a different mission.  

So, my question is this: What recommendations do different libraries
have for naming such an organization?


Please provide your responses off-line directly to tbirch at dalycity.org.
I will compile a list of suggestions and provide it to anyone
interested.


Thank you all very much.


Take care,

Tim
