by Elise Aiello on Nov 29, 2022

Each month, ByWater Solutions selects one library to be awarded $500. These funds are meant to support libraries and their communities and fill gaps in funding to further library goals.

We are excited to announce our November 2022 winner of the ByWater Community Giveback, the Knox County Public Library in Tennessee!

The funds will be used to support the library's Read City USA 2023 initiative. Read City USA is a collaborative initiative of Knox County Government, Knox County Public Library (KCPL), Knox County Schools, and other community organizations to help all children, regardless of their socio-economic background, learn to read, thereby reaching their full potential in school and beyond.

Jennifer Harrell, Library Fund Development and Engagement Manager at Knox County Public Library, recently commented:

We are so excited to launch our 2023 Read City Initiative and are grateful for the support from ByWater Solutions."
