This cabinet will be filled with non-perishable food and personal hygiene items for those in need to take. If you are able, we are accepting donations to help fill our "Comfort Cabinet." Contact the library at (315) 592-5159 and ask for Caroline if you are interested in making a donation of:
- Non-perishable food items
- Personal hygiene products
- Feminine hygiene products
- Hats, mittens/gloves, scarves, etc.
- Monetary donations to help keep the cabinet stocked

AMAZON SMILE CHARITY LIST
|
|
FPL now has an Amazon Smile Charity List! This is for those who would like to donate to the library by purchasing something specific rather than giving a monetary donation. The list features items that don't quite fit into our budget but that we think would greatly benefit our community to have. These could include toys and educational materials for the children's library, books, craft supplies, programming materials, and more.
