Donate your gently used goods to our fundraiser for Step Up Camp 2023, and lend a hand

It’s finally here! CISV Vancouver is getting ready to host a garage-sale fundraiser on Saturday, June 17th at the corner of William and Rose Streets in Vancouver. We have secured a group of driveways during the wildly popular annual Great Grandview Garage Sale, which runs from 10 am to 2 pm. This is our chance to try to raise enough funds to run a Step Up Camp for 14- and 15-year-olds this summer — and we need your help!

• Donate stuff! Have you done some spring cleaning and need to get rid of some gently-used goods? Please set them aside to bring to our sale! You can drop them off between 8 and 9:30 AM the morning of the sale. If that’s a problem, we can take donations the night before at nearby houses;  please email Autumn.Longley@gmail.com for info or feel free to drop off the evening prior at Pennie’s house, 2000 William Street. If you’re able to take home whatever of yours doesn’t sell in the afternoon, we’d really appreciate it! With that in mind, here are some of the quality items that sell well and will help us raise the most money for our camp:
• toys and games (wagons, riding toys, lego, puzzles, board games, etc)
• sports equipment (bikes, scooters, etc)
• household items (from dishes to coffee makers to teapots to vases)
• power tools or other equipment (working, please)
• furnishings (chairs, tables, bureaus, lawn chairs, patio umbrellas, etc)
• plants (if you’re dividing plants this spring, these sell well in this neighbourhood!)

Are there other items that you’ve seen sell well at your own garage sales? Bring them along!

• Bake! Do you have a way with baking? Our Junior Branch is running a bake sale. We invite not only specialties that can be sold individually as snacks for garage-sale goers (like cookies) but also loaves, pies, and cookies, etc, that can be sold in packages to take home. (Please package them for sale and provide a sticky note with any allergens in ingredients.) You can sign up for the bake sale HERE.

• Lend a hand! We need help pricing items and arranging tables between 8 AM and 10 AM; selling goods between 10 AM and 2 PM, and cleaning up after that. You can sign up HERE for a shift or email Autumn.Longley@gmail.com. We expect to have a lot of fun!

Any questions? Please email Autumn!
