Everyone knows Habitat helps to build homes, but this time we're building something a little different... Little Free Libraries! These little libraries will be installed in our communites and filled with books for local families.
Friends of West Florida Public Library will be donating their extra books to Pensacola Habitat for Humanity's Little Free Library Program. In exchange, we've promised to help setup for the sale. Volunteers will help set up tables and move books from their storage location to the Downtown Public Library, then get setup for the sale.
Youth are encouraged to participate in this opportunity, but you must be 14 or older and there must be at least one chaperone over the age of 21 for every 5 youth.
