Help stock the shelves!
Starting November 13 we're offering library visitors a chance to help us put items on food pantry shelves in advance of the holiday season to support neighbors in need. Every can, box, and bag you donate helps prevent someone from going hungry during the colder months. We have two locations:
Woodmere - Fill the Bookbike!
- The TADL Bookbike will be parked in our front lobby, ready to collect your donations.
East Bay Branch Library - Hallway Shelves
- If the East Bay Branch Library is more convenient for you there is also a collection point inside near the library front doors.
What to Donate
We welcome non-perishable food items such as:
- Canned vegetables, fruits, and soups
- Pasta, rice, and cereal
- Peanut butter and canned proteins
- Baby food and formula
- Snacks and hygiene items
Please check expiration dates and avoid glass containers for safety. Collected items will be transferred to local food pantries for distribution.
