LIBRARY LOVERS’ MONTH
February is national “Library Lovers’ Month”. In celebration of this, the Mt. Pleasant Library is running a fundraiser called “Valentines for the Library”!
Help support our library by showing your love. Donate a “valentine” to the library. Valentines are available at the library and will be hung on our walls. All donations will go toward our children’s and teen’s summer reading programs and are tax-deductible.
We would appreciate anything you can donate, and would like to thank all those who donated last year, and helped make our summer reading programs a success.
Though our “Library Lovers’ Month” fundraiser is in February, donations for our Summer Reading Program are gladly accepted anytime.
