Help Local Needy Kids by Donating to the Ready for School Donation Drive at Ridley Township Library August 1st- 31st

Can you imagine heading back to school without school supplies, uniforms, or a backpack? The reality is that many kids from underprivileged families will in fact head back to school without the basic supplies and necessities that they require. This year, you can make a difference. Ridley Township Library at 100 E. MacDade Blvd in Folsom, PA will be partnering with Cradles to Crayons (http://cradlestocrayons.org/) to collect supplies for local needy families from August 1st through August 31st.
