Belle Vernon Public Library is teaming up with the Goodwill of SWPa’s Tri County Plaza location for their annual Donation Drive. Donations brought to that Goodwill location on Tuesday, May 14 between 3:00PM – 6:00PM will help the library raise money, as well benefit Goodwill in their mission to help people overcome barriers to employment.

“A previous director started this partnership probably close to a decade ago,” noted the Library Director Elina Filander. “Our patrons and area residents get to ‘Spring Clean” their small household items, knick knacks, and clothes while helping a very valuable community resource like Goodwill.”
The Goodwill donation center resale shop is located at 460 Tri County Lane, the location of the former Peebles store since relocating in late 2022.
Acceptable donations include clothing, handbags, glass and housewares, cooking accessories, musical instruments, sports equipment and toys. Among the items that cannot be included in the donation day is furniture, baby cribs and gates, computers and televisions. A full list of acceptable and unacceptable items is available at the library.
For those unable to get to the Goodwill on May 14, the library will accept items at the library beginning on May 6. The library is in the North Belle Vernon Municipal Building, 505 Speer Street. Hours of operation are Monday through Thursday, 10:00AM to 7:30PM, Saturday 9:00AM to 4:00PM. For more info, contact the library at 724-929-6642.
