Mom to Mom Sale Report


 

On March 21st, 2015 the Salvation Army hosted our first Mom to Mom sale. 

·         With 25 tables available, we sold out of our spaces and saw hundreds interested in attending. 

·         A handful of area businesses made donations to the Salvation Army so they could add promotional materials to our attendee gift bags. 

·         Nearly 200 people showed up Saturday morning to shop from our 25 ‘Mom’ sellers. 

·         In total, the Salvation Army raised $593.75 which we could put towards debt relief. 

Also, we raffled off a family membership to the Children’s Museum for all our attendees, and the lucky winner was Daniel Parvu. 

We would like to thank all the sellers who signed up and came out to help make our event such a successful draw for area families, and thank the area businesses who donated and helped make our event a bit bigger and more interesting for all in attendance.  And last but never least, we’d like to thank all the staff and volunteers who gave their time and energy to help bring this entire event off without a hitch.  Overall it seemed like everyone benefited, and that was the ultimate goal.

L.U.N.Ch. starts March 28th, 2015!

 
On March 28th we will begin our Saturday L.U.N.Ch. program at 10:45a.m, and for our first gathering we've called for a Yooper Luau.  We can't always wait for the snow to go to have our backyard barbeques and beach parties, so wear your best winter and summer getups, and maybe, you'll even win a prize.
