Stonewall Library builds heart wall for Heart Month

STONEWALL, La. (KTAL/KMSS) – The Stonewall Branch of the Desoto Parish Library recently invited the community to take part in a Heart Wall project in honor of Healthy Heart Month.

The initiative, led by children’s librarian Ms. Tonette Sott, encouraged residents of all ages to sign red hearts and display them on the library’s wall—showing their support for heart health awareness.

With 124 hearts on display, participants also had the chance to enter a special raffle, thanks to the generosity of local businesses that donated gift cards and coupons.

Eight businesses, including LealV’s Café, Cousins Cajun Market, Simmons Landscaping Service, Pizza Hut, Subway, Sonic, Dollar General, and Walmart, contributed to the effort, making the event a memorable success.

Winners were chosen through a drawing held multiple times a week, with 89 adults and 35 children receiving prizes. The event not only raised awareness for heart health but also brought the community together in a meaningful way.

The Stonewall Library continues to provide engaging programs for all ages, including craft classes, computer sessions, exercise programs, and children’s activities. The library is now gearing up for a Dr. Seuss Birthday Celebration on March 6th at 2 p.m., where children can decorate cupcakes, enjoy a story time, and participate in fun crafts.

For more information about upcoming events, call the Stonewall Library at (318) 925-9191.
