The library is collecting mittens, gloves, hats, and scarves during the holidays to decorate our holiday tree. Donations will go to a local shelter. We are also collecting items for Stepping Stone Shelter for Women. Stepping Stone’s mission is “To empower our community to live without violence. We achieve this through advocacy, research, education, and community engagement.”
Their most needed items are:
Bedding: Twin bed sheets, bath and hand towels, area rugs 4×6 or larger.
Hygiene items: Lysol spray, Pine-Sol, food safe gloves, laundry soap, large heavy duty garbage bags 35-55 gallons, new broom and dustpans.
Paper products: paper plates, plastic cutlery, paper towels, copy paper, and septic safe toilet paper.
Monetary donations are also welcome. Contact the Circulation Desk for more information at 219-873-3042.
Drop items in the box near Youth Services through January 2. Thank you for remembering those in need!
