Donations Continue for Del Webb Library

Six donors have added $131,000 to the Capital Campaign for the new library in Indian Land to match a $100,000 challenge grant from the J. Marion Sims Foundation.  These funds will help complete the interior space for the Del Webb Library, scheduled to begin construction by early summer. A development agreement between County Council and Del Webb will fund the construction.

Founders Federal Credit Union pledged $50,000 to support the Children’s Area of the library. Comporium Communications will furnish the Conference Room with its gift of $20,000. Lindsay and Louise Pettus pledged $12,500 each to fund a special exhibit space to house displays of the Catawba nation and culture. The Lancaster County Natural Gas Authority designated its $21,000 toward the Circulation Desk, the “nerve center” of the library. Springs Memorial Hospital will sponsor the New Book Display area of the library for $15,000.

The library has raised approximately $300,000 of the $700,000 needed to complete the project.
