The Friends of Hilo Public Library, established in 1983, is a dedicated group that has raised over $100,000 to support the library's initiatives. With over 300 community members contributing annually, nearly 50 of these volunteers actively assist in fundraising efforts, including organizing used book sales and managing the library's bookstore.

In addition to fundraising, the Friends sort and pack book donations year-round and maintain a Bargain Bookshelf located by the self-checkout area. Their commitment to enhancing the library experience reflects a deep-rooted connection to the cultural and literary heritage of Hawaii.
