Our Library partners with the Indiana State Library to present Our Heroes' Tree, a national program founded to recognize and honor the sacrifices of our current military personnel, veterans, and deceased service members.
Create an ornament honoring a service member and share it on our tree through the holidays. It is located in the Youth Service Department. As a way to honor our heroes' service, stop by and look at the photos and stories on these ornaments with your children.
The
Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library is a drop-off station for Hope
for Heroes: Winter Warm-Up for Homeless Veterans, a project of the ESA
Kappa Theta Chapter of Zionsville. You can help make winter a little
warmer for United States Veterans who are homeless or at-risk.
