Ruby’s raises money for foundation with books

A fundraiser for the Costa Mesa Library Foundation will take place from 5 to 9 p.m. Wednesday at Ruby’s Diner, 428 E. 17th St., Costa Mesa. The foundation is a local, nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing library services in the city of Costa Mesa.

Ruby’s will donate 20% from the sale of food and non-alcoholic beverages when orders are accompanied by the foundation’s flier.

The first 25 customers to come in to the restaurant with a flier will receive a free copy of President Bill Clinton’s recent book, “Giving,” or Suze Orman’s book, “Women & Money.”

Fliers are available at the Costa Mesa branch libraries or at www.costamesalibraryfoundation. org. For more information, call Kevin Coon at (949) 280-7793.
