What’s Up in the Attic late August #3 2017

SOME INTERESTING ITEMS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT ANGELS FURNITURE STORE. OPEN TILL 2 PM MON, TUES AND WED, NOON ON FRI.
1. Medical – how about 3 hospital type beds, two with electric motors, one hand crank. Walkers. Wheelchairs. Crutches. Low prices on medical items, so you can use them in time of need, then can re-donate them back to Angels for someone else’s future needs.
2. Wood chairs- with upholstered seats. Simply remove 4 screws from the underside of the seat, remove fabric covering, buy new fabric and foam at Schoolhouse Fabrics, staple the fabric onto the wood frame, replace the screws. Now you have fabric that matches your decor. A little furniture polish makes the wood shine. These chairs are made of real wood, not sawdust and epoxy.
3. TV stand- can fit a large size flat screen. Glass covered doors, shelves, to place your accessories.
4. Antique school desk.
5. Antique stand with drawers. Very nice condition.
6. Chest of drawers, needs some cleaning and polish, very low price

ANGELS FURNITURE STORE – OPEN AND CLOSED HOURS SCHEDULE  FOR THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS
The Manager is taking a well-deserved vacation soon, so the Furniture Store will be closed for purchases from Saturday Sept 2 through Saturday Sept 9. So, if you have immediate needs, please stop by Wed Aug 30 8am-2pm or Fri Sept 1 8am-noon. The store will re-open Monday Sept 11.

Of course, the Donation Center, including the Furniture Store dock, will be open for drop-offs of both furniture and small items (small items should be placed inside the mini-barn on the upper driveway).

Sorry for the temporary closure, but it is an example of the ongoing scarcity of volunteers requiring some difficult decisions

ANGELS FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR 2016 ARE RELEASED.
VIEW THEM BELOW, BY CLICKING THE LINKS

The official name for Angels is “Floyd County Angels Ministries Inc”, and it is a 501c3 non-profit, as determined by the IRS, and an annual statement on a certain form must be sent to the IRS under the applicable regulations. The organization operates the Angels in the Attic Store, the Angels Boutique, and the Angels Donation Center along with the Angels Furniture Store. So, the word “Angels” by itself is a nickname.

Because there are so many volunteers to run the day to day activities, there is large percentage of sales revenues from the stores that is available to be given to support local organizations such as food pantries and heating assistance. Some well known national organizations spend a lot on fund raising, many paid staff, and paid executives, so there is a small percentage left over for direct payments to their cause. Not so at Angels, which has a very high percentage of funds distributed to support worthy causes.

Then you will have them on hand when the warm weather returns around Easter time. We will be starting the summer sale on clothes and shoes Friday August 18th with summer clothes and summer shoes being 50% off.

NEW ANGELS FURNITURE STORE AT THE ANGELS DONATION CENTER WILL BE OPEN THIS SATURDAY AUGUST 12 FROM 8AM-1:30PM AS AN EXPERIMENT.

Come visit the Angels Furniture Store at 112 Needmore Lane this Saturday. Go to the lower driveway. It is open for the first time on a Saturday as a convenience to people unable to stop by during typical working hours. Depending on the popularity, perhaps some other Saturdays could be scheduled later on.

By the way, a reminder that the mini-barn on the upper driveway at the Angels Donation Center is where all small items should be placed inside (to protect them from the weather and to avoid an unsightly mess). All donated furniture should be delivered to the lower driveway and onto the dock of the new furniture store. Sorry, we are unable to accept mattresses due to health code, tube TVs due to hazardous material, or child car seats due to safety code. Those items must be taken to the Country Transfer Station on Storkers Knob Rd.
