The FOOLs were awarded a Friends of Kansas Challenge grant for $500. Sales from the annual book sale more than matched that amount-over $1,000! The FOOLs are continuing to raise money with a “Get your foot in the Library” fundraiser. For every $10 dollars a person donates, they will have a cutout of a foot with their name on it in the window. All this income is to finance the new carpeting in the library.
