              ONGOING FUND RAISER   -   CONSIGNMENT SALES      
 
Everyone who supports AAUW can help bring in some money for the Returning to Learning scholarship at Kirkwood College, the AAUW Education Foundation, and the AAUW Legal Advocacy Fund. You can take clothing, jewelry, furniture, toys, and household items to local consignment stores where we have accounts. There is a 2-box or 2-bag limit each time you take items to be sold. Each store prices the items higher than we ask at a garage sale. When an item is sold, we get 50% of the sale price and they take 50%. We have 2 members authorized to receive the payout cash at each place. Here are your options:
