Bridgewater Library invites you to share in the "Warmth of the Season"

Share in the Warmth of the Season at the Bridgewater Library by helping needy families and shelter animals.

During the holiday season, the Bridgewater Library has set up a drop off area next to the customer service desk, for animal shelter donations.  The Somerset Regional Animal Shelter depends on volunteers and public donations.  Items include cat, kitten and dog food, pet toys, non-clumping clay litter, dog leashes, collars, cotton towels, paper towels, bleach, laundry detergent and store gift cards.  The Bridgewater library will be collecting animal shelter donations until December 16.

Donate canned or boxed food, personal-care items on ‘BOBO Friday’.  “Buy One, Bring One” (BOBO) collection of food and personal-care items are for needy families in Somerset County.  Personal-care items, including bath soap, deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo and toilet paper, also are collected since these items are not covered by food stamps.  The bins are available every day, not just on the third Friday, so donations may be dropped off at any time during regular library hours.
