About Us
Rena Agoot Founder
How It All Began
31 years ago Rena was approached by Father Don and asked if she could help a family in need at Christmas. He told her that the father was a migrant worker and mom was having complications with her pregnancy and had to quit work.
​
She said yes! She held the first Yard Sale and was able to purchase items for the new baby and the rest of the family.
​
Ten years later Rena was ready to give up the program. As they were having the Yard sale for the year at church. A small girl came to her and asked her if she remembered her. She was the girl that they had helped ten years before. It was a sign to Rena to not only continue the program, but to grow it to what it is today.
