We’re proud to announce that you, our loyal library users, contributed $142.81 in cash and change to our Million Pennies Campaign in April 2012. We have now raised $6,637.66 since the start of the campaign in April 2010, which means we’re nearly two-thirds of the way there!
The Library staff would like to extend a hearty thank you to our most recent donors: Jama Darnell, Deb Harbin, Sterling Herron, Clint Holloway, Curtis Huskins, Morgan McLeod, Mike Mohsen, Tommy Parker, Bill Pearce, Anna Rosenburg, Morgan Simmons, Katie Smith, Adam Tomlinson, and Lauren Tomlinson. Remember, if you’d like us to thank you by name, please write your name down on the slips of paper in the tray next to the donation box, and we’ll let everyone know about your generosity.
Lauren Tomlinson is the winner of our monthly drawing. She will receive the hardcover Our Front Pages from The Onion. Congratulations, Lauren! Next month’s prize is the 2006 hardcover The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir by Bill Bryson. Donate to the campaign, write your name on a slip of paper, and place it in the box. On June 20th, we’ll draw a winner from the names we’ve collected!
We still need your help in raising funds to help us reach our goal of a totally renovated library. Bring your loose change and help us get closer to $10,000. Remember, when we raise the money, we’ll allow you, the contributors, to name a study room whatever you like. Every penny helps!
