Do you value the McKinney Public Library? Do you live in McKinney? Are you over 18 years of age? Do you have a desire to serve our community by donating your time and talents to further the Library’s goals?

If you answered yes to these questions, we need you! The McKinney Public Library Foundation (a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization) is actively recruiting volunteers who can be called up to assist the Foundation at its events and/or outreach efforts. Please visit the Foundation’s website at:    https://www.mckinneytexas.org/3487/McKinney-Public-Library-Foundation

Currently our Board of Directors is full but we can always use more volunteer help. Please sign up to follow our Foundation!

The funds we raise go back to the library for programming, support, technology, and more, all for the McKinney community. The Foundation’s mission is to help raise funds for Library needs that cannot be met by the City’s Budget.  There are many opportunities on the horizon as the Library expands and increases its services.  We participate in MPL's annual Literary Fest by supporting new authors. In addition, the Foundation awards scholarships to high school seniors who have volunteered their time at the Library. Some events may be recurring.  Others will be individual opportunities to serve.

Duties might be as varied as setting up author luncheons, directional help at large events, break down of events, and some light labor preparing event sites.

Please share your passion for the McKinney Public Library by volunteering with the Foundation.  

We are looking to 2 individuals interested in joining our Board.  Our non-profit is committed to building a strong community where individuals with disabilities are valued, respected and included.  We believe every person, regardless of ability, deserves dignity, opportunity and a nurturing environment to thrive.  Our non-profit hosts 3 signature events yearly, plus 3 community outreach activities.  The Board position will be for 1yr (may be extended) and requires a 30min to 1hr weekly commitment.  However, the 2 week window prior to and during an upcoming event or activity, that commitment will temporarily increase to 4 to 6hrs.  If you're passionate about serving and supporting children and adults with physical or intellectual disabilities, and interested in learning more about the position then reply and you'll be invited to an PRIVATE informational meeting on Saturday 7/25 at the Frisco Library.  This is a working board, volunteer non-paid position.

Help Keep Our Volunteers Cool & Hydrated!

Our home build project on Garcia Street starts THIS WEEK and the next five-plex townhome on Kings Row will be starting soon after that. With summer temps inching close to 100 this weekend, we are in dire need of donations of bottled water and Gatorade to support our amazing construction volunteers and crew ... and for our ReStore volunteers, too. Staying hydrated is essential for safety and success on the job site, and these gift‑in‑kind donations are truly appreciated!

Drop-offs:

You may bring bottled water or Gatorade to the ReStore during operating hours

Monday-Saturday 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.

Prefer to give another way?

Mailing or dropping off a gift card to a grocery store or big-box store (like Sam's Club or Costco) works great for us, too!

Texas has the highest number of uninsured persons in the United States.

The uninsured are up to four times less likely to have a consistent source of health care as those with insurance. Without a medical home, the uninsured often receive health care in the emergency room, the most expensive and least efficient setting possible for primary care.

In McKinney, over 18,000 residents are uninsured and over 12,000 live in poverty. This leaves many without affordable access to health care.

CommonGood Medical is a primary care medical clinic for low-income, uninsured residents of Collin County.

CommonGood Medical also provides primary care, acute care, pediatrics, women's health, optometry, dermatology, cardiology, pulmonology, counseling, physical therapy, occupational therapy, prescription assistance, specialist referrals, spiritual care, and community resource referrals.

Keeping clean can be very difficult on the streets. When a man or lady is able to keep clean, this can give them that extra bit of positivity they need to get through the day, and it can help them present themselves well for a job interview. Mini-hygiene kits are a great way to help care for the less fortunate. 

A) Assemble full kits
or
B) Donate whatever hygiene-related items you may have or buy. Feel free to give other items than those we have listed. We have found the ones listed are the most needed items.

To assemble a mini-hygiene kit just put the items in a half-gallon-sized zip-lock (or off-brand) bag. If the items fit in a smaller bag that is fine too.

Example Kit:

Toothbrush
Toothpaste
Disposable Razors
Deodorant
Soap

Feel free to add more items, but avoid liquids unless sealed very well.

We are in the streets daily, so we go through bags quickly. Please know any amount helps us care for the less fortunate in our community.

In addition to prayer, we also try to help the homeless we reach out to with their practical needs. Having a Food Pack to hand out to them is a great help especially on days when local food pantries are not open.

Crackers
Tuna in packets
Powdered Beverage Mix Packets

Monarch butterflies and other pollinators need our help, and you can make a real impact right at home.  

Join Keep McKinney Beautiful in promoting the creation of Monarch Waystations throughout McKinney. By planting native and adapted plants, residents can provide essential food, shelter, and breeding habitat for monarchs and other pollinators while contributing to a healthier, more resilient community. Monarch populations continue to face habitat loss across North America. Small actions, like a native backyard garden or container planting, add up to big change as native plants support pollinators, birds, and local ecosystems. 

McKinney proudly supports monarch conservation at the leadership level as well. The Mayor of McKinney annually participates in the National Wildlife Federation’s Mayoral Monarch Pledge, reinforcing the City’s ongoing commitment to protecting pollinators and expanding habitat. 

 Ways to Get Involved 

Helpful Resources 

Monarch Gardens at Gabe Nesbitt Park

The Monarch Gardens of McKinney serve as an excellent local example of how native plants and pollinator-friendly designs can thrive in public spaces. These gardens demonstrate how thoughtful planting supports monarchs, conserves water, and builds community pride. 

Program HOME 

A Blackland Prairie Texas Master Naturalist project that aims to consult and help guide residents in our community in creating habitats, increasing biodiversity, and educating about sustainability. This program is designed to help all residents, from landowners to homeowners to apartment occupants, by helping them achieve their goals for their own spaces. 

Monarch Waystation Program 
Create a Monarch Waystation to give butterflies and other pollinators the food and shelter they need to survive by planting native and adapted plants. 

National Wildlife Federation Certification Program 
Anyone can create a welcoming haven for local wildlife. Turning your yard, balcony container garden, schoolyard, work landscape, or roadside greenspace into a Certified Wildlife Habitat®is fun, easy, and can make a lasting difference for wildlife. 

Homegrown National Park Project 

Be part of a nationwide movement to restore biodiversity by planting native plants and removing invasives, turning everyday spaces into a connected “national park” for wildlife.

Did you create a Monarch Waystation or pollinator garden? We’d love to hear about it! Your story helps inspire others and strengthens our growing habitat network across McKinney. 

Share Your Monarch Waystation Story with Keep McKinney Beautiful 

Together, we can grow a network of pollinator habitats across McKinney, one garden at a time.
