Little Free Library - Huntington WV
Donation protected
A few years ago I installed a Little Free Library in our backyard to share books, smiles and conversations with neighbors. On July 8, a group of individuals decided to blow it up.
It would be easy to just say, well, this is just another example of something bad happening in Huntington. But what if we used this bad act as a way to not only rebuild, but grow our efforts?
Many folks have reached out saying they would like to donate funds to rebuild this library, but what if we raised enough funds to not only do that, but have 1, 2, 5, or even 10 built for streets and neighborhoods all over the city? Lets turn this event into something positive.
These libraries cost around $300-$400 each. I'll start the goal at $800, which will pay for two libraries (this one and a new one). Donate if you are so inclined. All funds will go toward rebuilding this library and having others built around the city. If enough if raised, I post on Facebook to get input and volunteers on where to place the newly built libraries.
All the best!
