ByWater Solutions Announces September 2024 Community Giveback Winner

by Elise Aiello on Sep 17, 2024

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 September 2024 winner of the ByWater Community Giveback, the Red Bud Public Library library in Illinois!

The funds will be used to support the creation of a sensory/calming area for children with autism and/or other special needs.

Jamie Joost, Library Director at the Red Bud Public Library, commented:

Red Bud Public Library is revamping the children's area, and is wanting to create a sensory/calming area for children with autism and/or other special needs. The Library currently does not have this available, and there is a growing need in our community to serve this population. The funds would go towards purchasing items for this area. This area would provide a place for children to go if overstimulated and will also include sensory items."
