This holiday season, The Peninsula Chicago gives back to the community by advancing vital learning programs at Chicago Public Library.
Mr. S, a teacher in the library at the Budlong Branch, is turning “No, I can’t” to “Yes, I can” one lunch question at a time.
The Library’s story extends beyond the pages of its books. It is a patchwork of stories of children hungry to learn, of teens exploring the world around them, men and women pursuing lifelong learning and better futures, of seniors excited to learn to use computers for the first time, families creating memories over books and toys, immigrants learning to read and write…it is a story of a vibrant community. You. Me. Us. We are part of Chicago Public Library’s rich and thriving story.
Age is just a number! Chicago Public Library believes that age is not a barrier to learning and thriving in the 21st century.
