The Taylor Library is asking residents to help support its community programs by donating their refundable bottles and cans.
The library has launched a bottle drive to raise money for activities offered throughout the year, with every refund helping cover the cost of supplies and refreshments.
Residents can drop off unwanted or extra beverage containers at the library or pick up donation stickers to use when returning recyclables at the local recycling depot.
In a Facebook post, the library said even small donations can make a difference, with every 10-cent refund helping pay for items such as art supplies for children’s programs and snacks for teen activities.
The fundraiser is intended to help keep the library’s programs running while encouraging the community to recycle and give back at the same time.
The library has a donation account with FSJ Return It on 93 Avenue in Fort St. John. Those wishing to contribute can bring in a bag of refundable containers and use a donation label for a quick and easy return.
Donations can be made during the depot’s regular business hours.
