PLACE: The Philadelphia Aids Thrift Store

WHAT:
Philadelphia AIDS Thrift is a non-profit business. Our mission is to sell the lovely, useful and interesting stuff generous people donate to our thrift store and then distribute the proceeds to local organizations involved in the fight against HIV/AIDS. Our current main beneficiary is the AIDS Fund. The AIDS Fund distributes money to twenty-nine AIDS agencies in the five county Philadelphia region. They pass on the money we give them every month with NO administrative costs taken out. They also organize the Philadelphia AIDS Walk every October and the monthly Gay Bingo fundraiser throughout the year. Thanks, AIDS Fund!We are committed to making a difference in the lives of people affected by HIV/AIDS. And to creating a store that serves this mission and is at the same time a good place to shop and fun place to be.
We would not be able to run the store without our VOLUNTEERS, so if you have spare time please help out!

NOTES: Dress for Mess! We will be cleaning and organizing the store. Please don't forget your permission slip.
