Changing The World One Project At A Time

May 7, 2016 By Salmon Library Staff Leave a Comment

Little Free Library to Leadore
Ever wonder how change happens? Well it starts with inspiration. In this particular case it came from Brooke Hulse, a senior at Leadore High School, who’s vision was to see available reading material for all no matter the location. She began her pursuit of this courageous Senior project by contacting Mark Steele a local craftsman known for his one of a kind constructions. Through his mentorship he guided Brooke on a journey that not only resulted in improving the lives of the many that use the Little Free Library, but to her as well. With the project successfully completed, those who are in need of reading material don’t have to journey all the way to Salmon or Leadore to find reading material. Just take a book and return a book. From one person to many, effecting change can be as simple as that. Thanks to people like Brooke in our community helping it grow, she demonstrates what is accomplishable merely from a vision.

To contact Mark Steele about and design construction needs call 208-313-2635 . A thank you as well to Roberta from Leadore Library for bringing us this story.
