Love is all is you need, right? Not for many members of our community, lacking the resources to feed their families. This Valentine's Day, why not share the power of love by donating food to less fortunate members of our community?
Share the love by joining the library's human heart of people helping
people. Your entire family is invited to take
part of an activist art project on Valentine's Day, Sunday, February 14 from 2-3 p.m. in the Winnetka Library parking lot. Everyone who
brings a can of food can help the library create a giant human heart,
which will be photographed and displayed in the library. The size of
the heart depends on you!
And, in the spirit of love, the library will erase $1 in Winnetka-Northfield library fines for every item you donate through February 14. Food
donations must be non-perishable and in non-glass containers. All donations will go to the
New Trier and
Northfield Township Food
Pantries. The food pantries both need pasta, pasta sauce, peanut butter and jelly,
cereal, oatmeal, pancake mix and syrup, canned meals like ravioli and
spaghetti-os, crackers and snacks, coffee, tea, juice, boxed dinners
like hamburger helper, and paper products.
In case of inclement weather, the project will take place inside the Winnetka Main Library. For more information,
