Weir’s post caption reads: “My hometown library came under pressure a year ago when two townships pulled their funding because the library included LGBTQ books. Me and my community here stood up and helped them through and it’s that time again where I send my annual check to cover the cost of the withdrawn townships and if you are able, please consider donating to my library or yours!”

Weir grew up in Quarryville and went on to become the youngest U.S. National champion in men’s figure skating since 1991.
