On Wednesday, February 15, Gloria Ray, acquisitions librarian at Sandpoint Library, will be the guest of Jim Healey between 9:00 and 9:30 am on 88.5 KRFY. Gloria will talk about what an acquisitions librarian does; her “ever-so-close” retirement; about donating books to the library; about upcoming events at the library; and much more.
On Friday, February 17, Shirley Paulison â community liaison for Circles, part of a nation-wide effort to eradicate poverty in America â will join Jim Healey between 9:00 and 9:30 am on 88.5 KRFY to talk about Circles and what the organization is doing to eradicate poverty in north Idaho. The Northwest Circles Campaign of Bonner County
envisions all people having enough money, relationships and meaning in their lives to thrive. Some startling statistics will be under discussion: 1 in 8 Idaho children go to bed hungry every night; Idaho ranks first in the nation for young adults living in poverty; 25% of the population in North and North Central Idaho are not meeting their
basic needs on a daily basis; and Idahoâs welfare laws are ranked last in the nation in supporting a familyâs efforts to become self-sufficient.
Tune in and hear people from north Idaho who are making a difference in the quality of life in our community.
