You’ve heard that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. That’s especially true at
Bargain Hendo located on the corner of
They recently had a couple of rough-looking bicycles that were dropped off – tires flat,
dusty and starting to rust. But a volunteer named Sawyer saw something beautiful
underneath the dull chrome. He spent a few hours restoring the old bikes and advertised
them on Facebook where they quickly sold.
Proceeds raised will help support WCCA programs like Apple Country Transportation here
in Henderson County. Apple Country helps people get to doctor appointments, food
shopping, congregate meal sites, school and work.
Bargain Hendo needs more volunteers who want to help their community by helping out at
the thrift store. Go to www.WCCA.org or call (828) 435-6880 for more information.
