EFL Children’s Room Fundraiser

EFL Children’s Room Fundraiser

Today, we are officially launching our EFL Children’s Book Fundraiser!
 
In 2025, we moved to the beautifully renovated Corts House on East Street. This move substantially increased the size of our Children’s Room as well as the number of children who visit to take out books!
Children’s books are crucial for child development, building language and literacy skills, fostering empathy and social-emotional understanding, and sparking imagination and creativity.
 
Our goal with this fundraiser is to stock our selves with new books that will give our tiniest library patrons a larger selection to choose from! We also have an Amazon wish list with items we would love to add to our Children’s Room which you can find at: https://a.co/hWcSVfn
 
Please see below for options to donate and help the children in our community grow. We appreciate your help and support for our children! All donors will be recognized with their name placed on the cover of the new book.
 
If you have any questions, please contact Gwen Bluy (607-643-5855) or Kristy Riley (845-325-5848).
