Humility of Mary Housing is preparing for its 21st annual Fresh Start Benefit Sale to be held at the Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds August 17 - 20, 2010.

This sale is just the place to recycle those items you have cleaned out of closets, attics, basements or garages. Your gently used items will become someone else's treasure. We can use house wares, small and large appliance in good working order, furniture, toys, tools, jewelry, bedding, linens and much more; no clothes for this sale, please.

There is a new location for dropping off items for the Fresh Start Sale: 2906 Brady Street in Davenport. It is left off Brady at E. 29th Street and just west of Life's Little Treasures. Drop off dates and times are: Monday, Thursday and Saturday 9am - 3pm now through August 12.

All proceeds from the Fresh Start Sale benefit Humility of Mary Housing, Inc., celebrating 20 years of success helping homeless single-parent families return to self-sufficiency. In those 20 years they have served 665 families including 1288 children.
