Yard Sale! Yard Sale! Yard Sale!




On Saturday July 22, 2006 Fresh Start for Women held its first ever
yard sale for charity. This was the brainchild of its newest board member Ms. Cathy Williams and with the help of Ms. Nikkeah Tibbs and founder Janice Pettigrew a fantastic time was had by all.


There were many great items to choose from including, toys, electronics, lamps and other household goods. Ms. Nikkeah Tibbs stayed busy serving up hot-dogs, hamburgers, chips and drinks as bargain hunters browsed for that special something.

Held in Lawrenceville thanks to the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Copeland. Beth Copeland is the founder of another great ministry helping the community God’s People Ministry. Mrs. Copeland remarked, “I was delighted to be able to help a worthy organization earn funds for their program.”

With the yard sale being such a huge success plans are now in the works to hold a much larger joint event in October with Fresh Start for Women and God’s People Ministry. Be on the lookout for details in the coming months!!
