FACC 2019 yard sale a success



By Susan Palmes-Dennis

Last Saturday’s (Aug. 31) successful yard sale organized by the 2019 Board of directors of the Filipino American Community of the Carolinas Inc. (FACC) inspired the group to hold another sale this time on September 28.

FACC president Muffy Therrien confirmed this right after the end of the yard sale which saw late comers still buying the unsold items just as the volunteers were about to pack them away.


The yard sale began at 7 a.m.  The Sept. 28 yard sale will help raise funds for the FACC’s 32nd Gala.

Among the items sold at Therrien’s home were assorted clothing, kitchen and cooking items, knick knacks,  books,  bicycles and child strollers and vanity items.

Dr. Nini Bautista de Garcia, Grace Basilan, Jyoti Friedland, Dhi Donato, Muffy Theirren, Liza Salyer, Marjorie Ray and Dorena Reynolds donated the items for the yard sale and they are accepting donations for the Sept. 28 yard sale.



“This is the first time in the history of FACC that this was made,” the soft spoken Lynn Lorenzo Polk, past FACC president, told everyone present.  The FACC 2019 Board of Directors will pass a resolution thanking the donors for the Aug. 31 yard sale.
