Consider donating money to library

I like to read because it's fun and my teachers say I'm really good at it. I am a fourth-grader at St. Ludmila school.
My parents told me they (city) are building a new public library and maybe we could help. I'm going to have a lemonade and popcorn stand to raise money to give to the library. I'm also going to give some of my allowance money.
My dad told me there will be a place where me and my friends can go to watch movies and play on computers. He said there will be a place on the roof that we can learn about bugs.
I told my dad that I would give some of my money to the library, that way it can be done sooner and I can go there with my friends. He said I should write this letter to ask people who have more money than I do to give money, too. I think my friends and I are going to have a lot of fun at the library.
