Small local charities, such as the Friends of the Roxbury
Library, rely on volunteers to provide vision and execution of programs and
fundraising for the causes they support. Volunteering for your favorite charity
can be a wonderful experience. In today’s
busy world, carving out time to volunteer can be challenging, but oh so
rewarding. There are several ways for
you to become more involved with the Friends; as you do your spring cleaning,
put aside your unwanted gently used books for our upcoming sale. We will begin
accepting book donations Thursday April 19th.
Or do you enjoy browsing our semi-annual book sale tables
looking for your next bedside read? It takes a village of volunteers to take
the mountain of donated books to make those neatly sorted tables you peruse. Circle
March 31st on your calendar for the Sorter Orientation meeting and
join the village.
Another option this summer, murder will be in the air as we
partner with the Roxbury Arts Alliance on murder mystery night to celebrate the
finale of Adult Summer Reading. We are looking for a murderer, witnesses, detectives
as well as behind the scenes helpers. If you have murder on your mind, e-mail
us at FriendRoxburyLib@aol.com or
post a message on our Facebook page.
