Give Back to Those Who Give So Much: Support Our Teachers!
The Marion Library is organizing plans for our annual Great Give Back, which is a community service initiative created by the Suffolk Cooperative Library System many years ago, in conjunction with the Nassau Library System. The mission is to provide a way for the patrons of the Public Libraries of New York State to participate in meaningful, service-oriented experiences.
The Great Give Back runs from September 8 to October 6. We’ll be collecting classroom wish list donations from patrons to support Marion teachers at all school levels — elementary, middle, and high school.
