Colfax Elementary Yard Sale
Colfax Elementary will hold a community yard sale Saturday, Nov. 17 from 9 am to 2 pm, and the money raised will go to a foundation to benefit Southern California fire victims.
The goal of the "Colfax Gives Back" event is twofold: help those devastated by the fires and teach children a valuable lesson about being grateful for what they have and to give generously to those in need.
The local community has kicked in to help the PTA. Ben Neumann from Globat.com and Ben Forat from Studio City Car Wash sponsored the event by having 10,000 event flyers distributed in the community.
The PTA is asking if you have items to donate for the event, you may drop them off Friday after school between 2:30 and 6 pm by the auditorium or Saturday morning between 7:30 and 9 am.
Notes on the flyer: "Bring your surplus, never used or outgrown things i.e. toys, furniture, clothing, books, bicycles, sports stuff--anything and everything that has a resale value. Please price & tag your items."
"Buy something new or useful to you, a friend, a relative or anyone else you can think of!"
The school is located at 11724 Addison Street, Valley Village.
