ST. LOUIS COUNTY LIBRARY FOUNDATION
The St. Louis County Library Foundation made the tough decision, three months shy of their sit-down gala, to switch gears to a week-long digital campaign. Fund the Need Week ran from August 29-September 4 in support of educational resources at St. Louis County Library. The campaign featured celebrity support from former St. Louisans Jon Hamm, Beau Willimon and Curtis Sittenfeld. Donors purchased seats to an exclusive Zoom call with bestselling author Chris Bohjalian. JoAnn Sandifer won the Golden Raffle, which included seven nights of luxury accommodations at Hammock Cove Resort & Spa Antigua. Board member and sponsors Gerry and Judy Jehling hosted a zoom party which included Foundation goodies for guests to enjoy while giving. The Foundation was able to raise more than $175,000 to purchase Wi-Fi Hotspots, Chromebooks, tutoring, learning pads, and books to help kids learn during this pandemic and beyond.
