Join us to provide a “Warm Welcome to the Library” to disadvantaged Chicago children.
Thanks to support from the Rotary Clubs of Winnetka-Northfield, Wilmette Harbor and Wilmette, IATSE Locals 2, 110, 476 and 769 and the Chicago Community Trust, over 2,000 children will receive a new winter coat, 2 new books, and an introduction to their neighborhood library branch.
Events will take place at 12 Chicago Public Library branches, beginning November 1 and running through December 15. We need volunteers to help set up the giving rooms, help children pick out their coat and books, and clean up after the event. Most importantly, volunteers will show these children and their families that we care about them, giving them hope and confidence.
