DONOR BINGO; A GREAT STAY-AT-HOME GAME
Although Thriftique pickups and the Warehouse are closed until further notice
, we encourage exploration of closets, kitchens, and living spaces for no-longer-needed pieces that will delight Thriftique customers or DDD shoppers. Put them aside to donate when we reopen. We will keep you informed.
Meantime, play Donor Bingo—a win-win for you and NCJW.

Entertainmobile
, one of NCJW’s performing groups, premiered its newest show,
Broadway, Beatles, and Babes
, at McGregor Nursing Home in January to appreciative applause! Entertainmobile, in existence for more than 45 years, travels Cleveland’s senior circuit performing songs that bring back wonderful memories for their audiences. These women meet regularly to create, choreograph and practice. Some have belonged since the beginning. They have become a Sisterhood of the Travelling Costumes – a real sisterhood of like-minded women. Contact the office for their future performance schedule, and come check out one of their fantastic shows!
