Thanks to Garden Walk Donors
Donors, honorees, and patrons joined library staff and trustees during a lovely summer afternoon event to thank those who have donated bricks and benches to the Downers Grove Public Library Foundation's Garden Walk.

Brick donations will be used by the Downers Grove Public Library Foundation to purchase artwork and other enhancements for the library.  The Foundation is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization, and your contribution is tax deductible. 

You can still donate a brick and see it installed before the end of the year. For more information, pick up a brochure or call the Administration Office at (630) 960-1200.

Rotary Donates $1,000 to Foundation
Following another successful Oktoberfest event, the Rotary Club of Downers Grove recently made a $1,000 donation to the Foundation. The Foundation thanks the Rotary for their continued support of library programs and services in the Downers Grove community.
