📚 Read for those in need | Join the Cabarrus County Library in giving back to the community. The library branch whose readers log the most minutes will win their community’s food pantry a $2,500 donation, and the top reader from each branch will receive an Amazon Fire HD8 Plus tablet provided by the Cabarrus Literacy Council.
How it works:
Register on Beanstack and choose the library you visit most often – suggested reading and activities are available on the app, although all reading counts and activities are optional.
Check in each week for stats on how each branch is doing.
Nonperishable food items and book donations will be accepted at all branches. All donated items will go to your local food pantry regardless of which branch wins.
