Food for Fines - September 1st - 5th

Help the Pike County Outreach Council food pantry this week by "paying" your library fines with nonperishable food items at any branch of the library, September 1st - 5th. Simply bring in one nonperishable food item for every $5 in library card fees, and your fees will be waived.

For example, if you owe $12.95 in fines, a donation of three nonperishable items will clear their record. The library reserves the right to reject donated items that are damaged, dented, expired, etc.

Items needed most at the pantry:

  • canned fruit
  • noodles/pasta
  • dried beans (navy or pinto)
  • soups
  • cereal
  • peanut butter
