A small library with a big heart. 💜

Thanks to the generosity of Kinley Macknin, visitors to The Gathering Place East can now enjoy a brand new Little Free Library!

Kinley raised the funds to purchase the library and filled it with some of her favorite books to share with our community. Her dad, Jon, even helped bring the project to life by installing it himself.

This thoughtful gift is a wonderful reminder that kindness and community come in all sizes-and that even our youngest supporters can make a meaningful impact.

The next time you're at The Gathering Place East, be sure to stop by, take a book, leave a book, and celebrate Kinley's incredible generosity.

Thank you to the Macknin family for helping hope, connection, and a love of reading grow in our community.
