That’s the saddest thing I’ve heard today. I’m sorry.

It’s been replaced over a year ago. It was just a trash move by some kid I’m guessing. This one was a little different. It had 3 different heights for different age groups of readers.

We have one in every neighborhood around me and they've have to be repaired countless times. They started as a super cute cabinet with glass windows, but of course they got broken. Then they tried acrylic, which also got broken.
It is now just a solid wooden box lol

They don't help much as people hope they would. Usually because the places they are put up and maintained are already well to do. The ones they are vandalized and destroyed are on that path instead. It's more of an indication of the health of a community than an influencer of it.

Some of the ones I have close to me have a pantry and books. These are in the lower income areas. Always a assortment of canned goods
