Lisle Library District joins in personal care products drive for pantry

The Lisle Library District is joining Lisle Township in holding a Personal Care Products Drive for the Lisle Township Food Pantry.

A donation box will be in the library's lobby, 777 Front St., from Sept. 13-20.

Most assistance received by people in need provides only food and not personal products.

The Lisle Library District seeks to bridge this gap by collecting items that are not covered by the food assistance in the Women, Infants, and Children program or other assistance programs.

The following items are most highly sought: toothpaste, dental floss, mouthwash, toothbrushes, shampoo, conditioner, hairspray, hair gel, face soap, toner, moisturizer, lip balm, bar soap, shower gel, loofah sponges, razors, shaving cream, Q-tips, cotton balls and Band-Aids.

All donations are greatly appreciated and the Lisle Library District thanks our generous community for contributing to this worthy cause.

The Lisle Township Food Pantry is operated for the benefit of township residents who are in need. The pantry is staffed by a group of dedicated volunteers. It is located at 4711 Indiana Ave, at the east end of the building.

The Lisle Township Food Pantry is grateful for partnerships with the Northern Illinois Food Bank, area businesses, civic groups, and individuals that donate their time, food, and money.
