Subject: [oasl-all] Donations for Lookingglass Elementary in Roseburg (Fire Destroyed Library & More)

Right after Christmas, there was a fire at Lookingglass Elementary School in Roseburg. The fire destroyed the building that housed the cafeteria, gym, library, and more. A group set up a Go Fund Me page, noting that “[t]he building does have insurance, but at this time we are not sure what items will be covered. With that the money raised from this account will go directly to Lookingglass to replace items not covered from insurance.”

Yesterday I emailed Oriole Inkster, the principal at Lookingglass Elementary, to ask if they were accepting book donations for the library and to ask if there was a way to specify monetary donations for the library. This is her response:

Yes, you can designate where you want your donation used. Yes, also, to the book donations. We are making a small cozy library in a room we were using for another purpose, but have cleared out because library is a priority. You may drop books off at the school, and you may also give money directly in the office rather in “Go Fund Me.” If anyone wishes to send funds directly to the school, our address is:

Lookingglass Elementary
7421 Lookingglass Rd
Roseburg, Oregon 97471

Here’s an article from The News-Review about the fire.
