Donations are needed this Saturday morning (April 25, 2015) during the Tamaqua Volunteers group’s Donation Drop-Off and Free Tamaqua Community Giveaway event. If you can donate, please drop items off at M & M Self Storage (next to Schickram’s Car Wash on Rose Street) anytime between 8 AM and 9 AM. Almost all items accepted, no matter how small or large. The only items no accepted are televisions older than 5 years and obvious garbage. “We rarely get appliances and furniture donated,” said event organizer. “Most items are small.”

Do you have any items you want to get rid of or simply don’t need anymore?
On Saturday, April 25, 2015, members of the Tamaqua Volunteers community initiative group are holding their Donation Drop-Off and Free Tamaqua Community Giveaway event.
The group is looking for donations of clothing, toys, tools, electronics, holiday decorations, pots/pans/dishes, cookware, furniture, appliances and practically anything else.
Donations can be dropped off the Saturday of the event between 8 AM and 9 AM at the M & M Self Storage facility, located next to Schickram’s Car Wash (Rose Street) in Tamaqua. Volunteers stress that they are not able to pick-up, store or deliver donations.
The only items not accepted are computer monitors, televisions, printers and obvious garbage. All donated items must be clean and odor-free.
Any Tamaqua resident wanting to receive donations is encouraged to be there by 9 AM for the donation giveaway scheduled to start at 9:15 AM sharp. All items will then be given away free to residents via a drawing. Donations are never given away prior to the giveaway.
Anyone, no matter where you live, can drop items off.
Any residents with a 18252 zip code on their ID, no matter their income, can take advantage of this giveaway.
Volunteers state their appreciation to Thorn Cycle’s, M & M Self Storage and the Moyer family for donating the facility every month for the giveaway.
In case of rain, the event will be moved to Sunday, April 25, 2015 (same times).
The group holds the event every last Saturday of every warm month.
