Program Description

Event Details

We're back with our 2nd Fine Forgiveness Food Drive. It's a way to give back to your community and have overdue fines forgiven! Last year we collected 643.8 lbs of food for our community partners, and we'd love to collect even more this year! For every non-perishable item donated a dollar or fines will be forgiven from your account. Fine forgiveness is limited to $5 per account, but donations are unlimited. Only overdue fines can be waived, not lost book fees. Our community partners are The Hopewell Food Pantry, The Dinwiddie Food Bank, & Salem United Methodist Church Outreach.

In Virginia 1 in 8 children struggles with hunger. Learn more at https://map.feedingamerica.org/ and help us end hunger in America by donating at any ARLS Location all month long.
