Donations

I know many of you probably wonder what we, Encores and More North, do with all the items that are donated. When you choose to donate your items by marking them ALL with a D below your number, not only are you waiving your $10 consignor fee, but your donated items are greatly impacting families in our communities. This is how our donate process works.

Laura, our donate queen, brings her family and neighbors who take all of the items back to their house. They carefully go through everything to sort it into stacks based on need. Trust me, this is a full time job for Laura, who is the mom to twin girls, one of which has CP. On top of donating to the places you will see below, Laura also has several yard sales to help offset the costs of therapy for their daughter with CP. Because of this therapy, their daughter has recently started to sit up!! What a praise! This is also where Laura donated the Fall 2008 items:

-I have already helped out several families in need including the Wilson's friend, the lady from your consignment sale, families in Tracy's church, and a White House teacher whose house burned down.

-I am setting up a lending closet for Courageous kids camp. This is a camp for families with children with disabilities.

-I am setting up a lending closet for Barren Heights. This is also a camp for families with disabilities.

- Hope Clinic For Women- Maternity clothes and baby items

- My Own Bag of Love - Given to children that are taken in by child protection. Soft animals no hard eyes, any baby items, any toys for older kids no clothes

- Soles4Souls - shoes

- The Hope Center - White House

- The Arc of Davidson Co.

- H.B.Williams school - appropriate books and videos

We are so blessed to have Laura to take care of this great need for us. She is always wanting to know of families in the community that have needs so please don't hesitate to let us know at the sale OR send us an email. THANK YOU for your generous donations and please don't hesitate to ask any questions about this process!
