Support Literacy at MPHPL

A man reads with a young girl sitting in a chair at the Harris Branch. "Support Literacy, Support MPHPL, December 2, 2025, Giving Tuesday."

How You Can Help MPHPL This GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday offers the chance to support community literacy. “The generosity of our community helps fund books and programs that educate, empower and enrich lives right here in our community,” said Dena Wargo, Director of Support Services. “Together, we can make a lasting difference.” 

“For example, a $10 donation means a child who completes our reading challenge can take home a free book. A $100 donation allows 10 kids to earn a free book,” explained Wargo. 

Since its inception in 2012, GivingTuesday has become a global celebration of giving, empowering individuals and organizations to make an impact within their communities and beyond. Last year alone, GivingTuesday raised billions of dollars for nonprofits worldwide, supporting vital causes and encouraging people to give back. 

Monetary Donations

Here are just some of the initiatives that your gift will support:  

  • Books for children   
  • Literacy programs   
  • Events for the entire family  
  • Senior outreach activities   

Join us in supporting learning for a lifetime by making a generous donation today!
