Soldiers' Angels Nationwide Garage/Yard sale!

Soldiers’ Angels announces the First Annual Sale-abration, a nationwide garage/yard sale to be held on October 3! This special event with draw together people from across the country as they clear out their homes, support the troops, and spread the word about Soldiers’ Angels.

In addition to having the chance to get rid of cool and useful items they no longer use, sellers will be awarded a hand-signed Day of the Deployed proclamation from Soldiers’ Angels founder Patti-Patton Bader. Soldiers’ Angels will also supply each seller with 25 SA wristbands to motivate the first 25 customers at each garage sale, and cards to go inside holiday care packages for the troops will be available at each site for customers to sign.

Registration is now open. If you would like to hold a sale, please sign up. Information packets and further details will go out to all sellers in coming weeks. In the meantime, sign up and start spreading the news to your friends and neighbors. This could be a great event for a school or church, or a Scout/youth group. Get your whole neighborhood involved in one big yard sale!

If you would like to assist someone else who is holding a sale, keep checking the registration page to see if there is one scheduled near you and follow the contact information given.

Sellers who register will receive information packets soon, including flyers and suggestions for improving the sale and its impact. After Labor Day, help with press releases and local media will also be available.

  1. Hi :)

    I am an etsy seller that makes bottle cap and scrabble tile necklaces. I am an army sister so I make lots of different military related necklaces so the families of soldiers can show their support. It is just a small gesture of the pride and love we have for our soldiers. I was wondering if you would consider showcasing my items to your readers. You can check out my store here: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=8011789&section_id=6396122

    Best Regards,
