Goodwill Donation Day & Carnival – Aug 6th

LET’S PUT THE FUN BACK IN FUNDRAISING!

This summer, St. Thomas is partnering with Goodwill for a donation drive. Just bring your gently used items to the event and Goodwill will take them all away, issue you a tax receipt AND make a donation to St. Thomas based on the total weight of the donated items. It’s an easy way to clear out your clutter and support St. Thomas’ ongoing mission and programs!

EVENT DATE, TIMES & LOCATION

August 6th, 2016 — Goodwill Collection 9am-2pm, Carnival 11am-2pm
at St. Thomas Episcopal Church, 231 Sunset Avenue, Sunnyvale.

    GOODWILL HAPPILY COLLECTS:

  • clothing, shoes & other accessories
  • books
  • small household items (ex: dishes, small appliances, pots & pans)
  • electronics
  • and best of all … E-waste!*

[/su_list]

*Goodwill uses the largest E-waste recycler in the US, which exceeds environmental standards and does not process items overseas. E-waste includes items like monitors, hard drives, audio equipment, VCRs & DVD players, cameras, phones, and printers.

EXCLUDED ITEMS

*Goodwill will NOT accept furniture, mattresses, exercise equipment, large appliances, car parts, food, carpet, construction debris, liquids of any kind, baby strollers or car seats, pet-related items, or items over 50 lbs.

COMMUNITY CARNIVAL

As a way of giving back to the community, we’ll have a Carnival from 11-2 featuring a bounce house and many fun games. All activities and games are FREE and open to everyone.

REFRESHMENTS

We’ll be offering refreshments and yummy baked goods for sale.

  • The more we gather, the more we help St. Thomas’ financial health and ability to sustain important ministries
  • Volunteers are needed to help with the donation drive & carnival
  • Do you have a special carnival type skill or game idea?
