Cold has gripped the nation including those living in the south. It’s easy to think that this cold will never end, but spring will soon be here and, if you haven’t yet started organizing, sorting and purging, now is the time. The Haven has a venue for those who not only would like to declutter their home, but also help a good cause. The public is invited to mark their calendar for The Haven Resale Shop’s Spring yard sale on Saturday, April 25, from 8am to 1pm. Located next to Fairhoper’s Park in downtown Fairhope, the shop is accepting donations for this upcoming yard sale from now through April 23.
Resale Shop Manager Heather Delker is preparing for the Resale Shop’s first major event for 2015. “The yard sale is an expanded version of what we always have in our shop – antiques, art, books, music, kitchen and dining items, jewelry, pet accessories, and small furniture – so any clean, sellable donations in those categories are welcome. Your donations are tax-deductible and can be dropped off at 357 Morphy Ave. on Tuesday thru Friday from 10am to 3pm. You can “like” The Haven Resale Shop on Facebook to stay updated on our Yard Sale and other promotions.” Because The Haven Resale Shop is small, they don’t accept clothing, large items such as refrigerators, nor electronics, such as TVs, computers and printers. Furniture will be accepted if you can bring it to the shop.
In addition to The Haven Resale Shop’s Facebook page, the public can also visit The Haven’s website at www.havenforanimals.org, as well as The Haven’s Facebook page for more ways to help and a more complete listing of what the shop sells and accepts. If you have any questions, call the shop at 251-929-1911. “We are grateful to the community for their generosity of donations and for the time the volunteers donate to keep the shop open,” says Mike Graham, the Haven’s Executive Director. “Funds generated from this event provide support for our life-saving adoption and foster programs.”
