WASHINGTON COUNTY â When Womenâs Club of South County (GFWC) member Suzan Amoruso was brainstorming of a new, charitable activity the volunteer service organization could undertake, she considered a world reshaped by the pandemic and one of the public institutions she enjoys most.
âI was trying to think of something contact-less that the club could do and I also love libraries,â said Amoruso. âThen I thought these independent stores are struggling.â
Now through the end of the month, GFWC members will purchase sought-after books requested by six local libraries across five Washington County towns and donate them to the libraries on April 4 through April 10, National Library Week. All books will be purchased at Wakefield Books and were specifically requested by the libraries due to demand.
