LITTLE FREE LIBRARY "WE BELONG BOOKS"

Our Little Free Library "We Belong Books" is dedicated to fostering a more inclusive and equitable world by offering a wide range of children's books that celebrate diversity and promote understanding. Stories featuring characters from various backgrounds, cultures, and abilities can help shape a generation of empathetic and compassionate individuals.

All children should be able to see themselves in the pages of a book. Additionally, We Belong Books will give children the opportunity to explore different perspectives, develop a strong sense of self, and help increase understanding and acceptance of our friends and neighbors in our community.

COMMUNITY BABY SHOWER

We are happy to share that during the Community Baby Shower we collected $2,260 worth of donated items and received $2,350 in monetary donations (including a generous MACFI grant). The real magic happened, though, when we distributed 3,500 diapers, 115 packs of wipes, and a variety of other essential items to six local service agencies. Not only did we make a real difference for families in our community, we also raised awareness in about the pressing needs families with young children face. Thank you for empowering us to help, one small act of kindness at a time!
