WINONA LAKE - Kids Market will be hosting their 39th consignment sale March 9 at the Gordon Health and Wellness Center, 100 Publishers Drive, Winona Lake, on the campus of Grace College.
Having grown to have over 400 consignors, the March 9 spring sale features spring and summer clothing and shoes in sizes for newborns through teenagers – all in great or even new condition, according to a provided news release. Shoppers will also find books, toys, games, strollers, pack-n-plays, bikes, outdoor toys, bedding, nursery furniture, maternity clothing and more.
The sale begins at 8 a.m. March 9. At 12:30 p.m., the doors close for one half hour and from 1 to 4 p.m. everything goes to half price.
There is no fee for entrance to this sale. Shoppers should bring a bag or basket to use.
If you are interested in consigning or volunteering, register to participate in the sale by visiting the website at Kidsmarketinc.com and clicking the “Consign” or “Volunteer” tab. It takes over 200 volunteers to put on each biannual sale. There are four-hour volunteer shifts starting Wednesday night prior to the public sale and going through March 9.
"Kids Market has blessed many families in our community and beyond, including my own,” said Jessica Hauck, Kids Market board member. "This semi-annual event is only possible with committed consignors, volunteers, and shoppers. We love seeing people come together to care for their families through the sale and give back to other organizations serving women and children in Kosciusko County."
Some of the ways Kids Market contributes to the community is to pass along donated items after the sale to local charities and through passing out grants and vouchers that total over $408,000 to date. This is only possible because of the generosity of consignors and shoppers.
Consignors earn 66% of what they price their items at, and Kids Market uses the remaining 34% to cover the minimal event overhead expenses, most importantly grants and vouchers. Financial grants are awarded to organizations which fit Kids Market’s mission of helping families in Kosciusko County.
Through the years, Kids Market has donated to the following organizations: Agaitas, Beaman Home, CCAC, Combined Community Services, Fellowship Missions, Heartline, Joe’s Kids, LifeTouch, Teen Parents Succeeding, Warsaw Community Schools Clothing Closets and more.
