Want to get a jump on your
Spring cleaning? As you’re going through
your closet, cabinets, or “sort through” stash, keep in mind that one person’s
junk might be another person’s treasure.
Heartland Independent Living
Center (HILC) is accepting gently used items for their annual yard sale in
April. Proceeds of the sale go to Heartland’s
dental program which provides services for individuals with acute dental need but
lacking the means to address it. Heartland partners with the Agape Clinic of
Belle and dental providers in the area to provide these services.
Heartland is also accepting
adaptive equipment, such as wheel chairs, lift chairs, shower seats, bedside
commodes or quad canes. Many times these
items are used for short periods of time and show few signs of use. Heartland will restore or refurbish the item
and make it available at no charge to its consumers in need.
