donating
- Fab-U-Less Finds is open to the public and relies on donations for its inventory; all donations are tax deductible.
- Donations can be made anytime during our normal business hours. The store offers pick-ups for donors who cannot deliver.
- Items that are not usable are recycled through the metal yard and a recycling company that takes clothing, shoes, belts, books, and bags. We are as GREEN as we can be.
Without donor help, many individuals would lack the basic items they need to live comfortably on a daily basis. If you would like to donate items to the community or would like to volunteer your services to help those in need, contact Fab-U-Less Finds at the information below.
Your support is greatly appreciated and helps us keep our programs alive.
