Haverty's
Warehouse - Colonial Heights, VA - Contact: Wendy
This is the
"bump and dent" depot for Haverety's Furniture covering
four states. Haverty's donates these furnishings in exchange for a
"donation slip/corporation gift" receipt. An example
of someone who uses this weekly is Sargeant Santa. This could
be a great resource! (Haverty's Warehouse does not deliver, so if
Haverty's is able to help one of our families, pick-up will have to
be arranged.) |
