TLCWGC x The Exchange: Declutter with Purpose
August 28, 2025 @ 8:00 am – 4:00 pm
We’re excited to launch a meaningful collaboration with The Exchange — a beloved Sarasota consignment boutique that reinvests its proceeds into local arts and human services organizations. Now, your gently used treasures can help us turn compassion into grant dollars.
Here’s how it works:
Porch Drop-Offs Every Tuesday & Thursday
No scheduling, no phone calls, no hassle. Just bag up your donations and leave them under the covered front porch of one of our three collections homes:
Mary M – 7914 Staysail Court
Tricia H – 7935 Bowspirit Way
Vivi P – 8312 Genoa Boulevard
- Donate Gently Used Items
Our next scheduled drop-off is:
Tuesday, August 19 from 12:00–2:00 PM
Mary Myers’ Home (Contact Vivi Pietrunti for address and drop-off details) - Accepted Donations:
- Men’s & Women’s Clothing
- Hats, Handbags, Shoes
- Fine & Fashion Jewelry
- Small Household Items
(Larger items like artwork & furnishings accepted by appointment) - Please note: Winter attire and ladies’ gowns will not be accepted until September, per The Exchange’s seasonal inventory guidelines.
- How It Helps:
The Exchange will sell items on our behalf of TLC Women’s Giving Circle, returning 50% of all proceeds directly to our Grant Fund – supporting nonprofit organizations in Sarasota and Manatee Counties. - Trackable Impact:
Our Finance Committee has access to a live sales portal and will share updates so members can follow the collective impact of our donations,
