For over 60 years the United Women in Faith at Wesley UMC has raised thousands of dollars for mission needs. Yearly they have sent disaster relief through UMCOR
(United Methodist Committee on Relief), donated to Gum Moon Residence/Mary Elizabeth Inn both located in SF (supporting women who are homeless/low-income/from marginalized backgrounds to become self-sufficient), given to Brighter Hope for Youth & Children, and recently to the Asian Law Alliance in San Jose & to the Open Circle Church in Burnsville, Minnesota to help immigrants affected by the disruptive I.C.E. crisis, just to name a few of the many organizations who have benefitted from the Rummage Sale.
Let us count the many other ways that our Rummage Sale has helped:
1. It brings in hundreds of our neighbors together who shop for clothes and household wares for themselves or families living in Mexico, Vietnam, or the Philippines. Many families in our community are third generation shoppers.
2. It is a green/environmental event which reuses and recycles many once treasured items that would otherwise end up wasting in landfills. All unsold merchandise is given to HOPE Rehabilitation Services in San Jose which restocks their Thrift Store. HOPE operates workshops, day programs, job training, and counseling for individuals with disabilities.
3.Lastly, it brings church members together in fellowship who want to serve. We don’t know how shoppers and volunteers may be touched. May be the toys, clothing, or kitchen furnishings will find a home for a new family or the unemployed.
It’s a Win-Win Opportunity! Thank you in advance for all your help with this worthy cause!
