If you have overdue fines, now’s the perfect time to pay them off while supporting a great cause. Overdue fines will be forgiven for each donation from the following list of approved items: - 1 (6 oz. or larger) can of tuna - 1 (14+ oz.) can of baked beans - 1 (14+ oz.) can of vegetables or fruit - 1 (10+ oz.) can of soup - 1 (12+ oz.) box of Cheerios - 1 jar of peanut butter - personal care items: full-sized soaps, shampoo, deodorant
All donations go to the St. Charles Food Pantry in Bridgeport. Here's how it works:- 1 food item = waive fines on 1 overdue item if the fines are $.05 to $2.00
- 2 food items = waive fines on 1 overdue item if the fines are $2.01 to $4.00
