Community Partners 4 Kids will present the B-SAFE program 11 a.m. May 14. B-SAFE workshops are designed to educate children and parents on how to recognize potential danger and, most importantly, how a child can escape or avoid the danger on his or her own without adult intervention.

Community Partners 4 Kids is endorsed by many law enforcement officials in the Lehigh Valley, including Lehigh County District Attorney James Martin.

We will continue to collect nonperishable canned/boxed food products for Whitehall Food Pantry all year, not just for holidays. The pantry is located at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church. Items may be dropped off during regular library hours.

The pantry is looking for canned or boxed food (such as soup, Hamburger Helper and cereal), canned pet food and paper products (such as paper towels, toilet paper and tissues).

Monetary or gift card donations can be mailed to the pantry as well.

Please make your donations payable to Whitehall Food Pantry and mail to St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church c/o Whitehall Food Pantry, 3900 Mechanicsville Road, Whitehall, 18052.
