Souper Bowl Soup Drive
January 30 - February 24
Food insecurity is no game and is especially hard this year for many local families. You can help the library’s Teen Advisory Board tackle hunger by donating boxed crackers and hearty canned soups, stews, or chili to the Souper Bowl Soup Drive. Donations can be placed in the marked bin at the library during business hours January 30 through February 24. With your help, we can score a touchdown for our local food bank.
