Many of POB's sight-saving programs are supported through the operation of two resale and antique shops. These shops accept donations of gently-used household items such as antiques, furniture, bric-a-brac, collectibles, clothing, books and other items.

All donations are tax-deductible. Please ask for a tax slip at the time of donation.
