Garage sale. Youth collected items that members and others donated then held a

Saturday garage sale. Furniture, bikes, appliances, clothes, dishes, etc. They spent a few weeks collecting everything and they advertised it all over town and on Craigslist for a few weeks.

Only had maybe 8 or 9 youth in that ward, but the garage sale made several thousand dollars. Hugely attended.

Whoa. That's a ton. There aren't many fundraisers that can raise that amount.
