2025 Victory Neighborhood Garage Sale Fundraiser

Have a few things lying around that you’ve been meaning to part with? Skip the hassle of hosting your own garage sale and donate your gently used items to the Victory Neighborhood Fundraiser Garage Sale instead!

Whether you’re short on time, space, or just want to support a great cause, this is a perfect way to give your items a second life while giving back to the community.

Every dollar raised goes right back into our neighborhood, funding awesome events like:

  • Music in the Park
  • Ice Cream Socials
  • Halloween Decorating Contest
  • Holiday on 44th
  • Home Safety & Security Workshops
  • The Block Ambassador Program
  • ...and so much more!
