Food For Fines
Help Provide Holiday Meals
Food for Fines Campaign – December 1 – 8, 2017
The Crown Point Community Library’s Food for Fines Campaign will focus on supplying the necessary needs to local food pantries for holiday meals. While we will accept any type of non-expired canned or packaged items, we would prefer items appropriate for a holiday meal.
Starting Friday, December 1 and ending Friday December 8, 2017, you can help by dropping off donations of canned or packaged non-perishable food items at the Crown Point Community Library. If you have an overdue fine on your account, the library is offering to waive $1.00 in overdue fines for each item you donate through us during that time (up to $20). This does not apply to lost or damaged items. Items returned must be in good condition.
