Charity Grant to Somers Library

The Somers Public Library received $500 from the Aureon Charity Grant Program to help purchase a projector and screen that can be used for multiple events held at the library. Marcie Boerner, Webster-Calhoun Cooperative Telephone Association, is pictured presenting the check to Kim Kopecky, Library Director along with JD Siebert, Aureon.

The Aureon Charity Grant Program was established to increase and support to rural independent telephone companies and the communities they serve. Applications are considered on a quarterly basis and available to organizations within the Webster-Calhoun service area.
