We had one about a year ago and it was really successful. We raised $1900 to go towards their school fees, uniforms, food and books etc.
So my mum decided to make it and annual thing and do it again!
We had soooo much stuff donated to us to contribute to the garage sale..
Books, Toys, Clothes, Shoes, Furniture, Records, Bags, Paintings, Organic Olive Oil, Nepalese Handmade Crafts, Jewellery.... you name it!
We even made a truck load of muffins and a massive pot of traditional Chai tea.. it was a great day for everyone.
Although it was actually a really quiet day, (we live in a quiet street) we raised just under $1000 and I think that's pretty successful considering how many people showed up.
We still have soo much amazing trash n treasures left over to get rid of to raise more money for the kids so we are thinking of holding another garage sale in a different location in about 1 months time.
If you are interested in helping out or making a donation, click on the RCCO tab on this blog and it will take you to the facebook. You can just private message us :)
A huge thank you to everyone that did show up and show their support...
