One of the biggest fundraisers of the year for Dress for Success Memphis is the upcoming Upscale Garage Sale now in its fourth year. In previous sales that I have participated in, there were many donations of brand new items from local high end stores that were being sold at a bargain. I got a pair of $120 jeans that were made from sustainable fabric for just $10 that DFS put aside for me {since I was a volunteer but more likely because no one else would probably fit into the size 0.}
Dedicated shoppers to this sale came early to snag great items for a good cause. It definitely is a don't miss event. If you don't want to wait until the day of the Upscale Garage Sale to help Dress for Success Memphis, please “turn your closet inside-out” to find items you can donate or become a volunteer who in essence gets a sneak peek of the inventory. Hope to hear from you soon!
