Food Collection

January & February 2023

Parkland CARES is seeking donations of
Granola Bars (Regular Size Boxes)
Mac and Cheese
Canned Chicken Noodle Soup 10.75 oz.
Meal in a Can 15 oz.
Apple Sauce Cups or Pouches (No Fruit Cups in Syrup)

Please consider donating to this worthy cause this MONTH!

We are pleased to announce our continued partnership with our local food pantry, Parkland CARES. We will continue to collect food donations for those in need.

With their help, we established a permanent donation bin located in our front entryway for our patrons to place their items. This greatly benefits the food pantry, since donations can now be accepted during the library’s hours at your convenience. We also have a dedicated volunteer who comes once a week to deliver the donations directly to the food pantry.

Approximately 27% of the Parkland community is currently food insecure, and we are proud to assist the food pantry with their mission to end hunger in our community.
