Toiletries Tournament Drive – Library Week
Libraries make a different in their communities! KPL is celebrating National Library Week throughout the month of April by offering patrons and community members an opportunity to support their Kindred area food pantry through donation of toiletry items. Basic necessities such as shampoo, bar soap, toothpaste and deodorant are needed. A donation basket is located in the Library lobby.
