December 16, 2011 > Food 4 Fines Food 4 Fines Submitted By Mira Geroy To provide food for both body and mind, the Alameda County Library is partnering with the Alameda County Community Food Bank to bring Food 4 Fines to Alameda County Library cardholders. From December 17 - 31, for each non-perishable food item brought to the library $1.00 will be subtracted from overdue fines to a maximum of $10. The Alameda County Library system services a community of over 500,000 customers; the Alameda County Community Food Bank serves over 49,000 people each week. Together we can make a difference! Traditional barrel drives are now a key source for high demand non-perishable items like peanut butter, canned tuna and meat, beans, rice, low-sodium soups and stews and low-sugar cereal. Only non-perishable, unexpired, store-sealed items will be accepted. No glass, please!
