You did it!!
Thanks to our amazing Summer Library Game players, we helped deliver over 3,500 pounds of dog food to the Chesterfield Animal Services

We teamed up with Gleaning For The World and Rachael Loving to deliver all that kibbleβ€”enough for roughly 6,000 meals for the sheltered animals! 🐾

By completing Level 1 of the Summer Library Game, over 3,000 of you helped us reach our goal and unlock this donation, valued at $7,000. 🐢

Thanks to everyone who logged their reading and activities this summer to make this possible. ❀️ 🀍 πŸ’™

The county has recognized 13 Friends of the Chesterfield County Public Library volunteers with engraved bricks on its Volunteer Walk of Fame.
Chesterfield honors its volunteers who have served the county for at least 25 years in the walk of fame, which is near the Community Development Building.
Our volunteers are essential to our ability to deliver world class library services across the county. They are our ambassadors, sharing the value and importance of public library within Chesterfield.

Collaboration makes our community stronger β€” and we’re proud to see that work recognized nationally!

Meadowdale Library - Chesterfield County Public Library's Community Connections: Fostering Collaboration initiative has received a National Association of Counties Achievement Award for its innovative approach to bringing partners together to better serve our community.

Since launching in 2023, Community Connections has grown to include more than 40 participants representing 19 organizations across county government, schools, nonprofits, libraries, public safety, social services, churches, and other community partners. Through monthly meetings, the coalition identifies emerging needs, shares resources, closes gaps, and develops solutions together.

We’re especially proud that CIS-C Program Manager Elizabeth Stowers has been part of this award-winning effort, working alongside Meadowdale Librarian Carla Siqueiros and Branch Manager James Hudson, whose leadership helped bring Community Connections to life. James also serves as a CIS-C mentor, making this recognition especially meaningful to our team!

It’s a great example of what can happen when people and organizations across Chesterfield bring their strengths, resources, and relationships to the same table, and exactly the kind of community collaboration that helps students and families thrive.

Congratulations to Elizabeth, Carla, James, and all of the Community Connections partners on this well-deserved national recognition!
