FreeStore Donation Drive - October 20
Donate by October 20 and help us fill the yellow FreeStore truck!
Needed items include:
- Pots and pans
- Dressers
- Small microwaves
- Hand operated can openers
- Crock pots
- Kitchen utensils
(measuring cups, measuring spoons, mixing bowls, spatulas, etc.)
- Towels - both kitchen and bath
Items can be new or gently used. Deliver donated items to the blue bin opposite the red wall or directly to The FreeStore truck in the church parking lot on Saturday, October 19, from 3:00 - 6:30 pm and Sunday, October 20, from 8:00 - 11:30 am.
If you are buying new furniture, or down-sizing, please consider donating furniture you no longer need (couch, table, chair, dressers) to the FreeStore. Holy Trinity volunteers can come to your home and pick up these larger items on Saturday, October 19, from 1:00 - 3:00 pm. Contact Marty Rathje (964-2726) or Penney Wilson (964-3507) to schedule a pick-up.
Another option is to help us buy IKEA dressers for kids. Over the course of the past year we have provided around 230 dressers to kids under the age of 15. Help us buy dresser kits and we will find organizations to build them. Place monetary donations in the specially marked slot on the house with a green roof by the Red Wall.
See the Red Wall for details and information on other ways to donate or help. A FreeStore volunteer will be available at the Red Wall to answer questions between services on October 6 and 13.
