📚💙 We need YOU in the Orchard Hill Library! 💙📚

Our library could use a few extra helping hands! 🙌 We’re looking for morning volunteers during Soft Start on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays from 7:15–7:45 AM to help with simple tasks like:

📚 Collecting books from different pods
📖 Checking books in & shelving them
🏷️ Organizing & labeling
🧺 Keeping book bins organized

Just 30 minutes of your time can make a BIG difference for our students! 💛

Interested in helping? Comment on this post or email us at [email protected] and we’ll get you connected!

❣️If you can’t make those times but still want to help, please reach out anyway. We would love to work with you and find a time that works!

Thank you for helping keep our Orchard Hill Library running smoothly! 📚💙

Come meet the PPO Board and other members, learn a little more about what we do, ask questions, and find out how you can get involved!

🌮 And because this is Nacho Average PPO… of course we’ll have a NACHO BAR for dinner for everyone to enjoy! 🧀🎉

📍Orchard Hill Café
⏰ 6:00–7:30 PM
👧🧒 Childcare provided!

💙 Come hungry, bring your questions, and get to know your PPO community. We can’t wait to see you! 💛
