Help the Library by Participating in Compass for Your
Cause
Here's an easy, no-cost way to give
money to the Friends that will benefit the library.
Compass Bank is starting a new program for non-profits:
BBVA Compass For Your Cause. If you open a new
checking account, Compass will give the Friends $50 (May
through July; $20 thereafter). Compass will also
give the Friends 0.25% of check card purchases made from
new or existing accounts.
Please stop by or call any BBVA
Compass Bank (1-800-Compass) and tell the representative
you want to open a new account or add the Friends code
to your existing account. Give the representative
Bonus Banking Code 73165 to make sure the Friends start
benefiting right away from your support.
The Friends of the Lake Travis Community Library provide
volunteer service to the Lake Travis Community Library. Read the Bylaws.
