Reverse Garage Sale

Continuing on with the theme from the last post I just read an article about a reverse garage sale happening in Victoria this week. This is another example of people willing to help those in need. These are again people that are unlikely to be know to the person making donations. The idea behind the reverse garage is that people can drop off used goods that are in good working order. These donations can then be sold by Habitat for Humanity and the proceeds will go to the organization. This form of engagement is similar to the blood donations as it requires very little effort by the actual donor. This makes both events great community engagement programs as the number of people that will participate will be greater than programs which require a large commitment from people.
