My Sister's Place Seeking Donations

My Sister’s Place is looking for winter clothes and linen donations.

Winter is just around the corner, and those less fortunate suffer the most during these cold months. Coupled with a tough economy and the aftermath of Hurricane Irene, the need for winter clothing and linens is even greater than in previous years. 

There is an easy way to help. My Sister’s Place thrift store is seeking winter clothing and linens, including  sweaters, jeans, hats, gloves or coats. Linens are always in need and warm blankets and bedding can help provide an affordable way to stay warm during the brunt of the winter cold. Please consider donating sellable “gently used” items to My Sister’s Place.

Donations to My Sister’s Place not only benefit those who buy such goods at affordable costs, but all of the proceeds from My Sister’s Place supports the Umbrella domestic violence program. Last year, proceeds from the store helped Umbrella provides free and confidential services for nearly 1,900 victims of domestic violence. 

Donations such as clothing, linens, home goods, books and DVDs, or non-upholstered furniture could be eligible for a tax deduction to the full extent  of the law, and our drop off center is conveniently located in downtown Ansonia, just across the street from Target at 380 Main Street.
