Quarantine Yardsale

What can we say except - Bakersfield, you never fail us! Our organization threw together an impromptu yardsale in hopes to cut short our losses from postponing the 1st Annual Golf Invitational due to COVID-19.
We asked for your help and you guys stepped up! Bakersfield, you helped us raise over $4,800 for scholarships!
Not only did your donations benefit the David Marcus Thumbs Up Scholarship Foundation, but items not sold were subsequently donated to the Jamison Children's Center, Encore! Boutique, Junk-Atique Outlet Thrift Store, and local Boy Scouts of America!
Thank you, Bakersfield, for your continued donations and unwavering support! We appreciate you all!
