Foundation MCFL believes in the power of libraries to enrich and change the lives of Monterey County residents, each of whom deserves equal access to information that will open windows to a larger world. Foundation MCFL's mission is to assure and accelerate the mission of the MCFL system by providing resources and outreach.

Words & Wine is Foundation MCFL’s largest fundraiser, bringing together our most dedicated literacy advocates to celebrate the power of the written word and raise critical funds. Guests will enjoy a beautiful selection of wines and hors d'oeuvres followed by a talk by local author, Julie Tully. The event will conclude with an exciting live auction and fund-a-need program to support our libraries.
