Friends of the East Announce Two Fundraisers
August 30, 2021 – Lakewood Ranch

A library provides resources and tools for education. A library is the backbone to a prosperous community. Libraries make a difference.
The Friends of the East Manatee Library at Lakewood Ranch invites you to support the programs at the future Lakewood Ranch library branch. “This is a terrific opportunity for East County residents to support the future programs at the Lakewood Ranch branch,” said Friends of the East Manatee Library president Sue Ann Miller, Ed.D.
