Owen’s Dinosaur Books Donation

In spring 2021, a local kindergarten student named Owen convinced his grandfather to donate money to GPPL because he felt the library “needed new dinosaur books.” Owen’s grandfather agreed, and the two of them visited GPPL on April 15, 2021.

Owen’s grandfather donated $2,500 to put towards the purchase of dinosaur books for children. Thanks Owen! Thanks Randy!
