Spread the Warmth and Waive Fines at UCBA Library

Posted on by

As we prepare for the holidays and the colder temperatures, please help those in need stay a little warmer this winter by donating to our Spread the Warmth Drive benefitting Blue Ash and Montgomery neighbors.

Look for our donation bins in Muntz, Walters and Progress halls or drop your donation at the UCBA Library Information Desk.

Please donate new or gently used Coats and Fleece Jackets (no sweaters or other kinds of sweatshirts) in any size from infant to adult.

Donations will be collected from November 1 – November 21, 2021.

Have Library Fines? Bring your donations to the UCBA Library Information Desk and each donated item will count toward waiving up to $20 in library fines ($10 per coat or fleece jacket).

Thank you to all who generously donated new and gently used coats, hats, gloves, mittens, scarves, and even blankets to support our UCBA Cares – Spread the Warmth Drive 2018. We collected over 200 items and donated them this week to the Talbert House. Our donations will help make this winter and the holiday season a lot warmer for so many who are truly in need!

The Spread the Warmth Drive was sponsored and coordinated by Heather Maloney, director of the UCBA Library, and Jen Ellis, chair of our Nursing Department.
