MyLibrary eNewsletter - PLS Big Read - April 2012

  Pioneer Library System, Oklahoma

Hello Visitor,

The PLS Foundation

The Pioneer Library System Foundation was formed in 2010 to provide advocacy and financial support to enrich the present and enhance the future of the Pioneer Library System. It is a 501c3 nonprofit entity. Members of the board of directors represent each of the three counties of the PLS service area and meet four times per calendar year.

A fundraising initiative currently underway is the PLS Foundation Founders Society – the first 100 donors each of whom give, or pledge to give, at least $500. These donors will be recognized annually as members of the PLS Founders Society.

A first-ever fundraiser in conjunction with the Big Read features author Amy Tan as keynote speaker and is planned Saturday, April 28 at 10:30 a.m. at Moore Norman Technology South Penn Campus, 13301 S Penn, Oklahoma City, OK.

Visit the PLS Foundation website for more information on how to become a Founding Donor or how to get tickets for the fundraiser featuring Amy Tan.
