Clothing Sale Registration and Donations

Time to clean out your closets, support the PTC, and earn money - all at the same time! Sell your gently used children's clothing and earn 60% of sales, while the remaining 40% goes to help the PTC. All you do is tag you
r clothing and drop it off with us. We'll do the work of running the sale and returning your profits to you.
Or, for even less work, lending even greater support, and for cleaner closets, donate your children's clothing to the PTC, and the PTC retains 100% of sales. To donate clothes, please drop them off at 420 E. Maple Ave., LaGrange by Sunday, September 17th at 4:00pm. We do the work and rest assured that your donation is much appreciated.
