Lombard Library Trustee
Trustee Work
I want to share some of the work that has been done in the last year and a half of my term in the position of Trustee. Some of this work has been basic meetings, or reviewing material for the library handbook after the opening of the new building. There have also been dinners where I get to talk to community leaders about the great programs and space in our new building.

The first major project the Foundation is undertaking is the restoration of the portrait of Helen Plum. This pastel has been age damaged and is currently being restored. The foundation is raising money to help cover the costs of the refurbishment.
Here are some of the fundraising events that will be happening over the next few months:​
