The Friends of the Ormond Beach Library recently received a $1,000 donation from Local Souls, an Ormond-Daytona Beach based nonprofit founded by two sisters.
According to a press release, the two sisters — Chrissie Parsons and Brenda Hall — share a love of crafting and a desire to give back to their community. Local Souls donates 100% of proceeds to local charities and service organizations. Previous nonprofits to receive donations include Salty Family Services, First Step Homeless Shelter, Daytona Outreach, Dillinger Food Bank, Ormond Strong, Provision Packs and Halifax Urban Ministries.
Parsons and Hall can be found at the Ormond Beach Farmer's Market at City Hall Plaza, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Thursdays. Their nonprofit can be supported through the purchase of custom and original design stickers, magnets, engraved bookmarks, license tag art and sea glass pictures.
