Thank you for the wonderful outpouring of support for the Hulslander family! Thanks to you, the family no longer needs clothing or baby items.
Therefore, we’ve removed the bin from our lobby. The Hulslanders are still gratefully accepting gift cards, which can be dropped off at the library. Your generosity is a resounding affirmation that Guilderland and the surrounding area truly rallies to support each other. We are proud to be an integral part here!
