Many people know about the unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, but what you may not know is the lengths the Ferguson Public Library went to in order to make sure kids and community members were safe. They provided a safe place where kids could learn while schools were forced to close due to the extreme circumstances around them. The library provided a space for teachers to facilitate learning so kids would have a sense of normalcy. Now the library is in the process of hiring a full time children’s librarian to help facilitate their children’s programs. The library is also working to provide continuing education opportunities for community members. It stands as a pillar of strength and community and is working to unite others in this community’s time of need. All proceeds earned from the sale the Funds for Ferguson library bundles will be donated directly to the library. Please see the previews for each bundle to view items within the bundle.
My Sweet blogger friend Rainah Pray, from Fit for Firsties, has put together this fundraiser! You can shop here knowing that all proceeds will help the Ferguson Library!
