The Yarra Junction Library has heard the call to support the Koha Community Cafe in Warburton, donating over $550 garnered through their book sale to support them with the community meals they provide. Yarra Junction Library has committed to finding ways to continue to support Koha through the autumn and winter months as well.
On 12 April, the Koha Community Cafe thanked all those who had donated in recent weeks, including the Yarra Junction Library, on their Facebook page saying the any contributions ‘really do make a difference’ to them and that they are ‘fortunate to have such community-minded and generous people’ around.
Previously the Yarra Junction library has also helped in receiving donations for Christmas gifts to pass on to Koha as well as the ADRA Redwood Centre for their Christmas appeals and donated $300 from another book sale in 2023 for the community meals program.
