Schwan’s Fundraiser and more
The Schwan’s truck will be in front of the Briggs Public Library on Wednesday, October 12 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. to assist the library in raising funds for the purchase of a laptop and projector. The equipment will be used to help facilitate outreach programs to area senior residential facilities and for programs at the library like computer literacy classes. There are three ways you can participate in the fundraiser:
1. Purchase items the day of the event.
2. Reserve products online for pick up at the Library the day of the event. Go to www.schwansfundraising.com and use campaign Id: 36543.
3. Order a gift certificate(s) by calling 1-888-SCHWANS, inform the representative you want to purchase a gift card(s) and provide the campaign Id: 36543 or go to www.schwan’s.com, click on the gift card link and follow the directions including entering the campaign Id: 36543. The certificate will ship to address of your choice. Gift certificates are a great way to help the library and still support your local driver if you are already receiving delivery at your residence. Gift certificates also make great holiday gifts. For additional details on the fundraiser, stop by the library desk or call (989)224-4702.
