Dear fellow Hanoverians:<\/p>\n
The John Curtis Free Library has teamed up with the Boston Bruins to
\nparticipate in the 18th annual Boston Bruins PJ Drive to benefit Department
\nof Children and Families\u2019 (DCF) Wonderfund and Cradles to Crayons. The PJ
\nDrive\u2019s goal is to collect 10,000 pairs of new pajamas. Many of the
\npajamas donated go to local DCF offices in the area in which they were
\ncollected, benefitting local kids and teens. DCF estimates that at any
\ngiven time the agency is working with 50,000 babies, children and teens.<\/p>\n
Bruins forward P.J. Axelsson and his wife, Siw, started the PJ drive during
\nthe Boston Bruins 2007-2008 season as a way to give to give back to their
\ncommunity. Libraries from across the state joined the PJ Drive in 2014 and
\nhave collected over 53,000 pairs of pajamas since then. The Massachusetts
\nBoard of Library Commissioners works with the Boston Bruins to coordinate
\nlibrary participation.<\/p>\n
The drive runs February 1 through March 15. The Hanover library\u2019s goal
\nthis year is to collect 100 new pajamas. The collection box is located in
\nthe lobby by the main entrance.
