The Great Give Back*
Collection for Sleep in Heavenly Peace
Thursday, September 15 - Saturday, October 15
Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a local volunteer organization that builds beds for kids. We’ll be collecting new (in original packaging) twin sheet sets, comforters, and pillows appropriate for ages 3-17. The library will also accept monetary donations to build beds. Visit www.shpbeds.org for more information.
*The Great Give Back was created by New York State libraries to provide a day of opportunities for patrons to participate in meaningful, service-oriented experiences.
