NOTE: GOODWILL DRIVE TO FOLLOW RUMMAGE SALE
The Goodwill drive will take place on Saturday, August 4, from 9 am – 2 pm.
Goodwill will be taking almost everything left over from the rummage sale in addition to e-waste (old electronics, TVs, etc.).
Please let Kristen N. or Fran H. or follow the link to Contact Us for help with the following:

LET’S PUT THE FUN BACK IN FUNDRAISING!
This coming Saturday, St. Thomas is partnering with Goodwill for our second annual donation drive. Just bring your gently used items to the church parking lot 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 collected goods. If you didn’t have a chance to clear out your clutter at last week’s rummage sale, take advantage of this extra opportunity to donate your unwanted items in support of St. Thomas’ ongoing mission and programs!
