Anyone with children living in Charlottesville, Virginia and the surrounding areas has become familiar with Here WEE Grow Again, a biannual children's consignment sale held at Aldersgate United Methodist Church. The sale quickly became the "go-to" place for a plethora of gently used children's items. Consignors found a way to supplement their family income while shoppers discovered deals they otherwise could not afford, making the endeavor a true gift to the community. What is slightly less well-known is that the sale has added in a charity event to further its giving outreach.
This year's charity event will be held on March 4th from 3-7 PM. Shoppers are asked to donate $5 to one of three charities: the Carson Raymond Foundation, children's programs of Hospice of the Piedmont, or Piedmont CASA. Charities are always selected based upon their contribution to children and families in the local area, and those selected are rotated at each sale. This event is a fantastic way to purchase items for your children or grandchildren at affordable prices while supporting some great causes at the same time.
Here WEE Grow Again's Facebook page also has great information on the charity event and public sale, including photos of items currently available. Aldersgate United Methodist Church is located at 1500 E. Rio Rd (behind Fashion Square Mall.)
