In September, Friends International Aberdeen will hold its 4th annual Jumble Sale to welcome students. Do you have any warm jumpers, waterproofs, home goods, etc. in good condition but that you don't use anymore? If so, would you consider donating them to the sale?

All proceeds raised go to the Friends International Aberdeen Centre Fund which helps to pay for our regular programmes such as the AU and RGU iCafés and our Bible studies. It also provides financial aid to students who want to attend Christian conferences and trainings such as Big Weekend Away and Philp Project.
