In June of 2016, Déjà Vu Consignment Boutique
in Vancouver, WA, selected Time to Put Kids First to participate in their annual Half Yearly Sale.
This event brings crowds of people from the community to the boutique,
to shop their biggest sale of the year, to eat, and to browse the many
vendors who attend.
Amber Keech, owner of Déjà Vu, leads her
business with a huge heart, who loves to give back to the community
through partnerships with local organizations. Every year prior to their Half Yearly Sale, they ask the community to help them select
their favorite non-profit to participate. Déjà Vu generously donates 10%
of their proceeds from the day’s sale to the chosen non-profit
organization and Time to Put Kids First was honored to be selected in
2016!
At this sale, TPKF was given the opportunity to set up a
table along with the vendors, allowing us to share our organizational
mission, vision, and goals with the local community. Multiple TPKF
volunteers were involved in coordinating the efforts for this event by
donating tables and other needed supplies, providing transportation, and
giving their time on site to greet shoppers and to tell them about our
mission.
Overall, the day was a great success where TPKF was able
to meet many locals within the community, vendors and patrons, to spread
our message. You likely will not be surprised to hear that we spoke to
many people who were also impacted by separation, divorce and child
custody issues, including cases of parental alienation. Every time we
get out in the community, we hear from so many other families impacted
by this, and it just motivates us to work even harder!
Being Déjà
Vu’s biggest sale of the year, it brought in a large and consistent
crowd all day long, allowing for many new eyes to fall upon our
organization! We would like to sincerely thank Déjà Vu for this
wonderful opportunity giving our organization great exposure and a
generous donation of $460!
We are extremely grateful for your
compassion and heart to give to your local community and to
organizations in need. We absolutely loved working with such a great
team at Déjà Vu Consignment Boutique! Thank you to all who helped make
it a success!
