Lancaster Public Libraries to Host Mitten Tree Project

As the temperatures begin to drop, Lancaster County public libraries are doing their part to help less-fortunate children stay warm. The ninth annual Mitten Tree Campaign, beginning Monday, Nov. 17, will allow anyone to donate new mittens, gloves, hats, scarves, earmuffs and umbrellas to any of the Lancaster County libraries listed down below.

To help with this charitable cause, bring new and unwrapped items to the Etown Public Library, or any of the locations listed below any time between Nov. 17 - Dec. 19. Please feel free to call the Etown Public Library with any questions at 717-367-7467, or visit them at 10 S. Market Street, Elizabethtown, Pa.
