Host a "Giving Party"... And Help us Grow! Swap til you Drop!!
Want to "share your bounty" in a different and creative way? Why not end the buying season with a swapping season? Have a F-to-F "Closet For Good Swap Party" and help F-to-F grow!!!

A perfect way to re-purpose all those gifts you received. . . . things you don't want, don't need or can't use!

Invite your friends for an afternoon or evening of drinks and treats.......have them bring their own unwanted items (e.g picture frames, accessories, scarves, jewelry, knick knacks., kitchen tools etc. you know what we mean!) and SWAP AWAY!!! Ask your friends for a small contribution ($15-$25.) to be donated to F-to-F and include a link to our website in your e-vite. A GREAT way to support F-to-F and help us grow this new year!

You never know what you'll find!!
