Have FSA funds that are expiring at the end of the year? Consider using them to buy menstrual pads for Astoria Food Pantry (or other items for your local mutual aid group)!

if you are someone who gets a ton of ARCs and need to clear space, or if you're visiting your family and have a bunch of YA books in your old bedroom, or if you're a publisher wanting to donate to a 501c3 in the new year etc etc.....hit me up pls :)
we recently moved the bookshelves to the front of Astoria Food Pantry and ppl have been using them much more which makes me SO HAPPY but also means we need more books! we love donations from neighbors, authors, publishers, (galleys are great), etc. you can DM me or email therollinglibrary@gmail.com
Astoria Food Pantry/The Rolling Library got some new bookshelves (custom-built by a
volunteer!) and they are beautiful and we have been filling them with amazing free books for all 🥰 come visit us on a Monday night! www.instagram.com/therollingli...
