Each year the Junior League of Plano puts on a huge rummage sale, known as Trinkets to Treasures. Many people who are less fortunate than you or I come to this sale looking for items needed to care for their families. At Trinkets they can find children's clothes, books, toys, cooking utencils, and the list goes on...
All items are donated by Junior League Members --- so how can you help?
If you donate $25 to the sale - a family in need will be given a $25 gift certificates for the rummage sale that they can use to purchase the items their family needs.
You might be asking - so who gets these $25 gift certificates....well, we give them to area agencies to distribute to the people they help. For example, JLP might give The Samaritan's Inn 10 $25 gift certificates. Samaritan's Inn will then select 10 of their families and give them each a gift certificate.
For your donation you will receive a charitable contribution receipt so that you may take this deduction on your 2008 taxes - and of course you will feel WONDERFUL about helping a family in need.
If you would like to donate $25 - either send me an email or leave me a comment here. Here is a link to the JLP website with more information about Trinkets to Treasures.
THANK YOU!!! Thank You!!! tHANk yOu!
