Get your holiday shopping done without heading to North Prospect! (unless, of course, you are going up there to join AWARE) The 32nd annual Peace Bazaar is this Sat., Dec. 14 from 9 to 3 at Community United Church of Christ (corner of 6th & Daniel).
The Peace Bazaar sells gifts (new and recycled), baked goods, chocolates, UNICEF cards and calendars, household items, furniture, toys, books, plants, gift certificates to local restaurants and businesses, and several works by local artists.
All funds raised from the Peace Bazaar go to groups supporting Peace and Social Justice. This year the recipients include Eastern Illinois Foodbank, the BOAST Academy after-school program, the Progressive Resource Action Cooperative, the Independent Media Center, Voices in the Wilderness, Witness for Peace, and Amnesty International USA. Last year the Peace Bazaar was able to donate $3180 to six peace and justice groups, with each receiving $530. We hope to raise as much or more this year.
GET THE WORD OUT!!! We always have some spectacular deals and treasures waiting to be found. Best selection is at 9 am. Half-price sale starts at 1 p.m. Come to the Bazaar. You'll be glad you did. |
