MAAP Tag Sale
May 29 @ 5:30 pm - May 30 @ 5:00 pm
Help support Material Aid and Advocacy Program’s (MAAP) work and unhoused neighbors while shopping sustainably for a new summer wardrobe!
MAAP holds twice annual Tag Sale Fundraisers in the Spring and Fall. The sales take place across the driveway from MAAP in the Friends Room of the Friends Meeting at Cambridge and includes clothing that is of good to new quality and is not of use to MAAP community members (pieces that need to be dry cleaned or are otherwise costly to maintain) as well as vintage and designer clothing, finer housewares, antiques, and jewelry. Some items that do not sell and are practical are put out in our free store for MAAP community members, while other items are saved for the next sale. Proceeds from the Tag Sale make up 10% of MAAP’s annual budget.
MAAP follows the leadership of, amplifies, and organizes with people who are unhoused, and our allies, for evidence-based solutions to the interconnected systems and policy failures they are surviving. While doing this we support people in meeting their self-identified survival needs through outreach and sweep support, and at our low-threshold drop-in space where people access material aid and meals; have risk reduction conversations and safety plan; connect to resources and providers; build community; care for each other; and organize.
