Catherine, Meghan, Gwen and Simon (Ryan not pictured) |
On Saturday, July 9, four smiling faces walked into the Westover Branch Library, and handed the librarian on duty an envelope full of money, and a letter.
Were they there to pay a fine? No!
They had spent all day manning a lemonade stand in a nearby park, earning an impressive $23.25. When they remembered that the Library will donate 50 cents to help rebuild Haiti’s Petit-Goave Library for each child who turns in a completed summer reading log, the kids realized their lemonade money could help us do even more to help Petit Goave.
We are so grateful for their help, and their thoughtfulness!
