Library Presents Token of Appreciation
The Bridgeview Public Library recently presented the Mosque Foundation with a token of appreciation during the dedication of their new computers on December 9, 2013. Board Vice President Oussama Jammal accepted the award on behalf of the Mosque Foundation. The computers, which were purchased through a donation from the Mosque Foundation in August, will be a vital service for library patrons. Bridgeview Library Trustee Marwan Alsafadi had mentioned the need for new computers to the Mosque Foundation Board of Directors in July, who quickly acted on this charitable request. Sh. Jamal Said presented the check for $11,000 to the Bridgeview Library Board of Trustees on August 12, 2013. “We believe in education, we believe in giving back to the community. The Library is so important in the life of our neighbors, our kids, and our students,” Imam Said stated.
