White Elephant

Fountain of Life White Elephant Stall…Jesters Fair…2009

Once again the Fountain Of Life White Elephant stall, which sold second hand goods, clothing and general bric-a-brack was in full swing before 8 am on the day of the fair.  Which officially opened at 10 am!!!

During the year we collect goods from many different sources, and many thanks to you who are so generous in what you give to the center to sell.

I saw many familiar faces of buyers who I have seen over the last 5 years, since I have been involved with the Jesters and FOL.  They are always happy to see this stall at the fair and know they can grab a few bargains!

This year I had many great helpers on the stall, and they proved their worth as it was so busy nearly all day!!  Thanks to Kathleen, Elizabeth, Taylor, Fiona, Alana, Amy, Marolian, Rosanne, Bernard, K Anon and K Noi.  Also the kids from ISE who helped as well, and Linden for organizing them.

I am pleased to say that the only remaining goods left were taken by Rosanne for Women With a Mission to distribute the warmer clothing up in Mae Sot, and Khun Noi received with thanks clothing to help the slum families of Kate’s Project.  So the stall was far spread in its good will!

The stall on the day raised 10,150 baht, just going to prove that “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure”.  Please start your collecting for next year and feel free to drop any goods at the Fountain of Life Centre off Third Road.
