Man’s donations fund new book for local library

A local library came up with a wonderful way to acknowledge the financial contributions of a person The Resource Center supports.

Matt S. visits the Falconer Public Library on a regular basis with his Life Coach, Jennifer Herron. When he checks out books and movies, Matt donates a few dollars.

Whenever Matt makes a donation Sandy Thies, Senior Library Clerk, places the money in an envelope with Matt’s name on it. The amount of money in the envelope has grown over time, and recently Sandy used Matt’s contributions to buy a book filled with Dr. Seuss stories.

Sandy put an acknowledgment in the book stating that Matt had donated it. (Matt’s pictured here holding the book alongside Sandy.) Dr. Seuss books are among Matt’s favorites, and he hopes many library visitors will enjoy the book.

We thank Sandy and the Falconer Public Library for celebrating Matt’s contributions in a way that meant a lot to him.
