Plainsboro Library’s “Little Things Mean a Lot Campaign” has spurred groups and individuals throughout the community to help raise fund for the new library.##M:[more]##
The kids and parents of Harmony School visited the library for a science story and returned their giant yellow cups, filled with coins for the Change for Change Campaign. After a successful effort to raise the roof of a parachute library using only a hairblower, the participants spun their coins down into the chamber, adding $162.54 to the campaign.
Plainsboro resident Josh Levy set up a table near the entrance to the library and invited all passerbys to enjoy “TeaTime.” His plan to earn a scout merit badge for community service resulted in another $87.55 for the library.
Mike Welborn, principal of Wickoff School, reports that the entire school has joined forces with PNC Bank to fill plastic piggies which will travel down Plainsboro Road to the bank later this year. The thermometer is rising, with $2,”758.81 of the $10,”000 project goal in the bank after two months.
“I encourage everyone to direct their random change toward the library’s community Change for Change campaign,” says library director Jinny Baeckler. “Change can be donated at the library or directly into accounts set up at 1st Constitution Bank and PNC Bank, both on Schalks Crossing Road.”
