The project involves purchasing a book for the Margaret K. Lewis School library from their book list in honor of a family member or friend.
For your donation to the MKL "Buy a Book" Gift program, a card designed by MKL students will be sent to the gift recipient detailing the title of the book selected on their behalf, and a name plate will be placed inside the book recognizing the gift donor and honoree and the donation to the library.
This opportunity is a wonderful way to give to family and friends, as well as the students who will benefit from your generosity.
