Here’s one idea for what you can do with that toaster or flower pot you no longer use– donate it to the Bedford Mosholu Community Association.
The Bedford Mosholu Community Association (BMCA) is hosting its annual flea market on March 5 at St. Mary’s Orthodox Church at 360 Bedford Park Blvd.
The group is collecting donations of any old or used items such as appliances, glassware, and toys, with the exception of clothes.
The flea market helps the BMCA, a group of volunteers committed to sustaining a quality standard of living for Bedford Park residents, cover the expenses that come with maintaining the neighborhood, such as the rent for the small studio where the association holds its monthly meetings.
Donations for the flea market will be accepted on Feb. 17, Feb. 24, and Feb. 27 at their office located at 400 E. Mosholu Parkway S. Their next meeting will be held March 2 at 8 p.m. where they will be accepting last minute donations.
The donations will moved to the church on March 3, with the help of a vehicle from Vanity Fair Bathmark located on Webster Avenue.
In another effort to raise funds, the BMCA is also selling five dollar raffle tickets for a chance to win a color TV, a basket of cheer, or $50 in cash.
