Help meet holiday needs in our community

Once again, the Yellow Springs Community Library will work with volunteers and generous shoppers to help meet holiday needs in our community.

From Monday, Nov. 21 until Saturday, Dec. 10, adult residents who need help providing holiday gifts for their children in Yellow Springs may fill out request forms, available in the library. Volunteers will code the requests and put tags on the library Christmas tree.

Holiday shoppers choose tags and make purchases, returning their wrapped gifts (with tags attached) to the library, no later 6 p.m., Friday Dec. 16.

All donors and recipients will remain anonymous.

Gifts are provided for local families only. The forms must be filled out by adults. Adults may also request clothing items for themselves, or special holiday food items. Food assistance is always available by calling the Food Pantry, 767-7560.

To participate, visit the library and place your own request, or fulfill someone else’s wish!
