Our 2nd Annual Spring Clean Out event was a huge success! We invited all of our past clients to come donate their unused or unwanted goods at Immanuel Church on the Hill. ALIVE! Alexandria, 123 Junk, and TrueShred were all there to help our clients with their spring cleaning.
If you couldn’t make it this year, check out how you can donate and get rid of some unwanted goods with our great partners below. We hope to see you at our event next year!
