PictureStudents like this one at St. Antoine’s School in Haiti benefit from your yard sale purchases.

Located under the big tent at the Price Right Convenience Store at 2900 Taft Hwy., the Highway to Haiti Yard Sale will benefit the St. Antoine School, a parish mission in Haiti. Please plan to shop for treasures at this great sale under the big tent.

The Highway to Haiti Yard Sale will run during the Highway 127 World’s Longest Yard Sale on August 3-6. If you wish to donate unused items from your home, just bring them out to the tent during the sale or call Allen Vessells at (423) 886-6223 to schedule a pick-up.

Almost 400 families from St. Augustine’s Catholic Church will be donating wonderful items, from antiques, curios, games, toys, furniture, books and other assorted finds.
St. Antoine’s School was founded by Signal native Jack Davidson with the support of St. Augustine’s Catholic Church. He heads the American Haitian Foundation, which underwrites the school where more than 1,500 children, from kindergarten through 13th grade (schools in Haiti have 13 grades), are fed and educated. St. Augustine’s Annual Yard Sale has been benefiting the poor of Haiti for over 17 years.

The sale accepts cash or checks (with a driver’s license and a photo ID).

American Haitian Foundation board member Betty Miles encourages everyone to donate and then shop at the Highway to Haiti Yard Sale to support the St. Antoine School, which gives hope to so many who need a hand up in Haiti.
