Areas of Focus: Basic education and literacy, Economic and community development

Activity Type: Education: Literacy

Summary: Library shelving for Ravens Landing Senior Community Center in Fairbanks, Alaska


The new Ravens Landing Senior Community Center includes a new library facility, but lacks shelving to store and display books, periodicals, and other reading materials. This project will involve the construction of 24 feet of custom, lighted shelving to fill this need. This facility is open to all Seniors in Fairbanks in addition to residents of the Ravens Landing Senior Living facility, so it meets a community wide need. Construction will take place in the Summer of 2014. A skilled contractor who works for Ravens Landing has prepared a cost estimate and is available to complete this project. Rotary Club of Fairbanks members will be actively involved in liaising with the Ravens Landing Senior Center staff and residents, promoting awareness of the project in the community and on Rotary's emphasis in literacy, education, and community development, and in overseeing the administration and construction of the project.
