The Aaron A. and Maria H. Putnam Family Charitable Trust
We would like to thank The Aaron A. and Maria H. Putnam Charitable Trust Fund for accepting our 2024 grant proposal for new additions to our ever-growing collection of take home learning kits. In the past we have focused on kits that encourage learning through play, but this time we have addressed the need for resources dealing with difficult topics. The Healing Library provides kits to help families navigate the life-changing experiences of the Death of a Loved One, the Death of a Pet, and Separation and Divorce. We have purchased these three kits, as well as created two kits aimed toward educating children on the State of Maine and adults on the Town of Houlton. We believe these kits will be especially useful to those patrons who are new to Maine and/or Houlton, but will be useful to longtime residents as well. Thank you again to The Aaron A. and Maria H. Putnam Charitable Trust Fund for continuing to support us in our effort to provide a variety of educational materials to our community.

Everyone who participates during the week gets an entry in for the Week 1 prize drawing which will be drawn next Monday.
Lego Club and Junior Lego Club will restart in the fall. We will share the start-up dates at the end of August.
