Meta Community Action Grant Recipient

The Alexandria Public Library is very grateful to receive a Meta Data Center Community Action Grant for 2023. This generous grant allows the library to offer community STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics) based programs, as well as extend the recently developed after-school robotics camps for kids. The library will offer patrons of all age’s programs challenging them to develop and design projects using 3-D printers and the Cricut™. Preschool children can create using magnetic blocks, light-up geometry shapes, and engineer a coaster. The library will also add a variety of STEAM educational resources thanks to the Community Action Grant. We are grateful for this opportunity to serve our library patrons and thankful to Meta for their community involvement.
