AUGUSTA — A Toilet Paper and Mac and Cheese Drive to honor Mister Rogers is planned in March at Lithgow Library, 45 Winthrop St.
Fred Rogers dedicated his life and career to helping children feel included, valued and respected. He left a legacy of helping children and their families believe “it’s a beautiful day in this Neighborhood,” according to a news release from the library.
This March, to honor Mister Rogers’ birthday on the 20th, the library is accepting donations of wrapped toilet paper and macaroni and cheese (boxed or microwavable), to be shared with neighbors through Bridging the Gap and the Augusta Food Bank. Bring donations to the Circulation or Youth Services desks.
