On Saturday, December 11, members of UUCP joined with the Humanists of Northwest Florida and the New World Believers Community Center to install and dedicate the first of two new Little Free Libraries.
Present from UUCP were Arnie Ondis, Erin Renfroe, Lauren Anzaldo, Paula Montgomery, and Bill Caplinger.
Partnering with the Humanists of NWFL on the Little Free Library was the 5th Sunday Share the Plate project in August 2020, when UUCP raised enough to build not just one, but two library boxes. Covid delayed the project, but the first one is finally up at the New World Believers Community Center at 2112 Yonge St.
The box was paid for by UUCP, built by the Humanists, hosted by the New World Believers Community Center, and stocked by donations from Open Books and anyone who wants to donate. There is a particular need for books for children – Early Readers through high school. If you have books you’d like to donate, please contact Erin Renfroe.
Edit (12/27/2021): The second Little Free Library is up at 1215 N. C Street, and both LFLs are now officially registered.
