Help us pave the way!
The Patchogue-Medford Friends of the Library are sponsoring this fundraiser for the construction and maintenance of the Medford Branch Library.
Buy a brick and leave a lasting legacy on the patio of the Medford Branch Library.
Perhaps you would like to memorialize a loved one or thank a teacher?
Maybe you would like to share a book title or quote from your favorite author?
These pavers will display your family, club, or group name and/or a personalized message. Businesses are welcome to participate as well to show their support of the Library! (and psst … a personalized brick would certainly make a unique gift!)
Bricks purchased after November 1st will be engraved in batches of 10, when the weather permits.
For questions about donation options call 631-654-4700 ext. 225
