PURGE for another Garage Sale Fundraiser

If you missed donating to to the Clean Water Garage Sale, you can still get rid of your stuff for a good cause. A friend of mine e-mailed yesterday about a garage sale she is organizing to build a women's shelter in Ecuador. I pasted her e-mail below so you can see the details. You can contact them for delivery times or pick up. So it's very easy! Happy PURGing for another good cause!

Attention Friends and Lovers of Chambana:

I need your help! I am broke broke broke and trying to get to Ecuador to collaborate again with the women in my "extended family" to work to get the shelter we dream of having for women there built and functional! Together with the help of a generous friend of mine, we're calling upon our friends to donate items to be sold in
a garage sale on Saturday, August 21st, 2010 in the Cherry Hills Subdivision in Champaign. All proceeds will help send me to Ecuador!

Please help a sister out and donate what junk (I say that lovingly!) you can to the cause! All donated things can either be picked up by me or dropped off yourself on location between August 19th, from 6pm-9pm (during set-up) at:

2811 Cherry Hills Drive, Champaign, IL 61822. My phone
Organizers, Rachel Storm and Joan Wingo can be reached at:
217-840-8517 (Joan) and 630-677-7219 (Rachel)

We also are looking for volunteers to do the following:
  • Staff the sale itself anytime on Saturday, August 21st from 7am-5pm!
  • Help set-up on Thursday, August 19th beginning at 6pm!
  • Pass the word around! Do you know more people who might want to get rid of their stuff?! Forward this message!
I plan to fly to Ecuador over Winter or Spring break this year and every penny counts. Please help me get there!
