On Saturday at 9am, the second annual Dwankhozi Hope Garage Sale Fundraiser kicked off and lasted through Sunday afternoon. Toys, clothes, housewares, sports equipment, books, you name it. Shoppers were wandering down the Lorentz Place block all weekend long finding some great items, unmarked and unpriced for a great cause.

And can you believe it?

Nearly $6,000 raised!!!

Of course, there were lots of leftover items and all of them are being donated to Northwest Harvest.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this event possible! Who would’ve thought a simple weekend garage sale could turn into such a community-based event?

Look for the third annual sale next summer, and mark your calendars for the Dwankhozi Hope Golf Tournament on September 15th. More info to follow soon!
