Drop off donations at Amphitheater on Saturday, Aug. 9

SALVATION ARMY

The Golden Age Foundation (GAF) will hold a donation event with the Salvation Army in the Amphitheater parking from 9:30 a.m.2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 9.

The GAF runs the event alongside the Salvation Army on the second Saturday of every other month. The event offers residents a convenient, cost-effective way to rid themselves of unwanted items.

The program, which began in September 2024, has gathered 17 truckloads of valuable clothing and household items, all of which have gone to support the Salvation Army’s Adult Rehabilitation Centers across Southern California.

The program saves residents money since it cuts down on expensive haul-away costs of bulky items that were previously disposed of at the 1.8-Acre site.

The Salvation Army accepts donations of clean, gently used, salable household items including clothing, bedding, kitchenware, small appliances and electronics, toys, sporting goods, books, art, home decor and small and medium furniture.
