Library Amnesty Days collects 225 food items for Portland Rescue Mission!
We held our semi-annual Library Amnesty Days food drive from May 3 – 14 and received 225 food items for fine alleviation. That’s equivalent to $675 in overdue fines! Portland Rescue Mission was very grateful for our modest donation. Thank you so much to everyone who participated.
Happy Summer Break!
