Partnership A Huge Blessing
A huge blessing for the Lincoln collection center. Bargain Box, a thrift store in Beatrice, NE donates clothing to us every 2 weeks. We take our truck & trailer to exchange 12 empty laundry carts for 12 full ones. Most of the clothing, quilts and sleeping mats are sorted and placed in the totes for us to box and send to Norfolk warehouse. There are several ladies and men that have been doing this for many years and before us, Central NE Branch was handling the pickups. Thank you for the many, many donations throughout the years!
