Now in its third year, the event brings local residents together with Royal LePage realtors to raise much-needed funds and awareness to help break the cycle of family violence. Since 2009, the National Garage Sale for Shelter has raised more than $435,000 to support women's shelters across the country and help fund long-term solutions to end violence in Canada's homes.
Members of the community are encouraged to participate and help de-clutter for a cause. Donate gently used items to a participating Royal LePage office and stop by a local Garage Sale for Shelter location on Saturday, May 14 to find some great bargains and help support a worthy cause.
In the Tr-Cities, the Coquitlam office of Royal LePage Coronation West Realty is located at 2185 Austin. Ave. The garage sale will run from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
