The residents of Palmerston Boulevard are planning their second annual community yard sale with a portion of the proceeds going to Habitat for Humanity for Saturday, May 29th, 2010.Building on the success of the First Annual event held last summer when Palmerston Blvd hosted 23 sales, several combining multiple homes, and many more homes contributed to the sale at ‘Habitat Headquarters’ where 100% of proceeds went to Toronto Habitat for Humanity. All together the event raised over $2000 for the charity, and double organizer’s goal.
“The intention of the day is to build community on our own street, to invite others to celebrate with us and together, raise money for a charity that helps to build homes and communities on a larger scale,” says one of the event’s organizers Mackenzie Muldoon; “everybody wins!”
Palmerston residents who are interested in participating are encouraged to contact Mackenzie Muldoon at planetpalmerston@gmail.com to register their sale.
