LAST CHANCE! FOOD FOR FINES ends Friday, December 18

Got fines? Pay them off with FOOD! The St. Johns County Public Library System is bringing back a program this holiday season to help stock the shelves of a local food pantry. The 2nd Annual “Food for Fines” program will begin Monday, November 16, and continue through Friday, December 18, 2009. Food for Fines will permit patrons to bring one sealed, non-expired, non-perishable food item to the library in exchange for each $1 in overdue fines. Last year, nearly 8,000 food items were collected. Get those fines off your record and benefit your community at the same time!
