With its first fundraiser, the Jefferson County Library Foundation is sponsoring "Dine Out for the Library," on Thursday at  in High Ridge. 

Jilly's has pledged to donate 10 percent of its proceeds from every lunch and dinner purhased on Thursday for everyone who brings in a coupon for the "Dine Out for the Library" event.

The Library Foundation was established in October 2010 to raise awareness and funds to support the technology development needs of the Jefferson County Library, celebrating 20 years of service to northern Jefferson County in 2011. 

David Mangelsdorf, president of the Library Foundation Board, said the foundation's ultimate goal is to establish an endowment fund to provide the seed money for new technology that will help the library provide the programs and services people want in the most cost-effective way. 

Jilly's Cafe & Steakhouse is located at 1630 Gravois Road in Country Charm Plaza, just off the intersection of Highway 30 and Little Brennan Road. Check out Jilly's web site.
