Benzie Sunrise Rotary Club

Benzonia Public Library is thrilled to be the recipient of the children's book donation project by the Benzie Sunrise Rotary Foundation.   

At Rotary meetings the guest speaker is invited to sign a children's book which is then donated to BPL. Books are purchased by the Benzie Sunrise Rotary Club based on a wish list created by BPL staff.   
​Adding so many quality books for our kids is a really big deal!
