From May-September, First Church collaborates with students, Williams College organizations, and as many church volunteer hands as possible to put on what we call our Giant Tag Sale. This year due to Co-Vid19 Williams students were not able to donate as usual. Nor were we able to hold our large indoor sale.
Normally collect lamps, rugs, refrigerators, appliances, couches, and yes, random trinkets to keep used goods circulating in the community and raise money for the church. It’s traditionally the church’s largest fundraiser of the year, and we like to think of it as akin to those hours at a CSA (community-supported agriculture) spent trimming garlic roots: it builds community, it’s for a great cause, and you’ll feel better after you help. Currently, our Giant Tag Sale coordinator is Hilary Greene with support from Jody Green.
