This National Library Week, I’m raising funds to support the Boston Public Library and the programs and resources that make it such an essential part of our community.

Across the Central Library and 25 neighborhood branches, the BPL is a place where people of all ages can learn, connect, and discover — from children attending story time to students studying, job seekers building new skills, and lifelong learners exploring lectures and exhibitions.

The Boston Public Library Fund is working to raise $100,000 during National Library Week to help sustain these programs and keep knowledge accessible to all.

I hope you’ll consider supporting my campaign and celebrating the power of the Boston Public Library with me.
