Friends Donate More Than 1,000 Books to Area Preschools

We may be in the midst of a pandemic, and it may be cold and snowy outside, but members of the Friends have been and continue to be very busy working on behalf of members of the Sudbury community.

Over the past several weeks, volunteers for the Friends of the Goodnow Library have sorted through the myriad of preschool books donated to the Friends and have boxed up donations for numerous local preschool classrooms. More than 1,000 books have been delivered to various pre-schools that serve the youngest members of our community. Staff at Aruna’s Place, Bright Horizons, Sudbury Extended Day, Sudbury Cooperative Pre-school, Next Generation and Wright Farm Child Care all shared their delight and gratitude when board members delivered boxes of books. Also, in support of a local diversity program, the Friends gathered books with diversity themes for a special program created by the Sudbury Cooperative Pre-School and the Children’s Department of the Goodnow Library.

The Friends of the Goodnow Library is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. For more information about the Friends, please visit our website at www.friendsofgoodnow.org or contact us at friendsofgoodnow@gmail.com. You may also find us on Facebook. Please watch for our upcoming programs and events.
