The Huge Garage Sale

Posted by Eliza On Monday, July 16, 2007
The Heifer Garage Sale was a great success!!
We had an overwhelming response to our call for donated items & were working late into the night on Friday to get everything sorted & priced for our 9am opening on Saturday. Two great things came out of this sale: over $1,600 raised that will provide animals & a new life to struggling families, & the incredible community building that it provided to our volunteer group & the neighborhood. We made sure that each customer knew where their money was going--who knows what impact that awareness will have down the road.
Thanks to everyone who pitched in & especially big thanks to Carla, for dreaming up the whole thing, & to Maribeth & Sandy for hosting it!
