The three-day sale kicked off this morning with gently used and like-new baby and kids items and clothing in Palm Desert.

Julianna Loya and Brianna Van Lierop organized the sale and encouraged locals to come on by.

“It’s a swap of items for families across the valley. It’s eliminating the waste of material ... When we are done with items, it’s turned around to families who couldn’t afford the items or give them to the charities,” Van Lierop said.

You';re welcome, Renee but I don't really expect thanks for my contributions to the classroom. IRead More wasn't going to stand by and see kids not have the basic things they needed to get through the class and most teachers are of the same mind :) Sadly, school budgets have never covered all the needs in classrooms.
