            “We especially need furniture, household items, career clothing and school-age clothing” said Sue Clewis, co-chairman of the event.  “The community has always been so generous.  We are optimistic that we’ll have seven or eight tractor trailers full by October. ” 

The first Donation Day in 1912 asked people “to bring some donation -- no matter how small or how large” including “money, furniture, pictures, sheets, towels, pillow cases, a pound of tea, other groceries, eggs, vegetables, china, etc.” While the perishables aren’t accepted, unusual items are welcome.   Particularly rare or valuable items are needed for the Silent Auction held Friday, October 19.

 Tax receipts are provided and all the money raised goes to support Ladies Board projects in the community.  The Ladies Board raises several hundred thousand dollars each year toward special needs equipment at Inova Loudoun Hospital and recently pledged a $1 million for the Cornwall Cares project.  The Ladies Board awards more than $100,000 in nursing scholarships annually.

The Ladies Board accepts furniture, clothing, books, household items, linens, lamps, sports equipment, etc., but some items cannot be accepted, such as mattresses or large appliances.  For more information on what can be accepted or not, please call 703-771-2985 or visit www.LadiesBoard.org.
