First Book is proud to congratulate Heather Winsby, chair of First Book-St. Louis, in her recent honor of receiving the Junior League’s Drue Lane Webster Volunteer Service Award for outstanding volunteer service in the community.

Junior League St. Louis established the award in response to a contribution given by the honorable William H. Webster in memory of his wife, Drue. Since 1985, 37 women have been honored because they exemplify Drue’s selfless style of volunteerism and service to the community and the Junior League. After ten years of chairing First Book-St. Louis and overseeing the distribution of more than 70,000 new books to local programs, it is no wonder that Heather Winsby was chosen as this year’s recipient.

Community Development representative Anna Williamson was there to receive the $500 donation on behalf of First Book-St. Louis and share First Book’s excitement on this award. Congratulations, Heather!
