Tips on Getting Organized
This month, we are showing you how getting organized can make a difference in your community. Last month, Impact participated in the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) annual Get Organized to Economize event at IKEA. We learned a lot from our organizer friends and think that you can too! Read some of these tips from the pros on home organization and don't miss their advice on cleaning out and donating. By donating your unneeded clothing, furniture, and household items to Impact Thrift, you'll maximize your spring cleaning efforts, recycle, and financially support the needy in your community all at once.
