The three area libraries conceived of a pilot outreach program, Read and Feed, to bring healthy lunches and summer reading programs to children in low-income neighborhoods located in Robbins, Jackson Hamlet, and Southern Pines. Each library used a slightly different approach, but all included reading, experiential learning, crafts, and book giveaways.
