The Volunteers of Lake Country are asking each of Hope Center’s Friends & Member Congregations to collect new and gently used books either as a special drive or ongoing project for the Children’s Free Library, and bring them to Hope Center where they will be sorted and shelved by the Volunteers of Lake Country.

• Children ages 0-3 are in great need of books.
