First “Food for Fines” event

Food for Fines

We had a very successful “Food for Fines” event at the library. We took in almost 300 cans of food with only around 90 being used to pay for fines. This means less than 30% of the food went towards fines and the rest were just donations from the community. We are so proud!

The food items were sent to two local organizations and Families Feeding Families was one.

      Thank you so much for the offer Melissa but the event has ended. If you have donations we would be glad to take them to distribute them and we promise to include you on our next fine forgiveness event. We hope to see you at the library soon!
