TOUCH OF HEALTH

It isn’t uncommon to see birdhouse-like community libraries posted around town, their shelves filled with donated literature free to add to or take from as you please. Now, along the new Truman Trail in Lake Mayer Park, Savannahians can experience a different sort of little library. Made in partnership with Healthy Savannah and a group of Savannah College of Art and Design students studying sustainable design, Healthy Hubs is a little library brimming with tools to lead a healthier lifestyle.

“Healthy Hub is a place to go for resources that promote better health and quality of life for all,” says Nichele Hoskins, the assistant director of Healthy Savannah. “You can take or add items like books, pamphlets, canned food and other health resources to share with the community.”

Given that the pandemic has exacerbated food insecurity, this community resource couldn’t have come at a better time. In the future, Healthy Hubs hopes to add another library in Savannah — and eventually go nationwide. — Sylvie Baggett
