"Previously Loved" Clothing Sale - Saturday August 28th - 9am to Noon

Clothing Sale

Spring is here and it is the perfect time to clean out your closet and make room for new clothing.  In that spirit, we'll be hosting a used clothing sale in the courtyard of The Village Well (during the Union Street Festival) with all proceeds supporting our programs. Please drop off any gently used and previously loved Women's and Children's clothing at TVW during play group hours or by appointment.

If you are not sure about an item, drop it off anyway and if we don't use it for the sale, we will donate it to one of the family shelters we support in the city. Please contact Nikki Roosvall at (408) 799-1376 if you have any questions about this event, donations, or how you can help.  This promises to be a fun event and a rewarding way to give back so please do donate, shop, or help volunteer. All welcome!
