Spring Fling is in the air! Hundreds of smart shoppers and veteran bargain-hunters will be searching for warm weather clothing, Kentucky Derby outfits and hats, and all the necessities of spring, including many one-of-a-kind items. The Nearly New Shop is a great place to start.
The National Council of Jewish Women, Louisville Section (NCJW) annual Spring Fling shopping and fundraising event will be held Thursday-Saturday, March 22-24, from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. daily at the Nearly New Shop, 1250 Bardstown Road in the Mid City Mall.
The store offers more than 10,000 square feet of merchandise: gently used clothing and accessories; fashions for men, women, and children; shoes; vintage attire; designer clothing; jewelry; home goods; furniture and more. Customers enjoy a unique shopping experience based on new merchandise arriving daily, thanks to donations made by the public at large.
Selling merchandize through the Nearly New Shop enables the Louisville Section to do good works throughout the community and to improve the lives of women, children and families in need. NCJW is a volunteer organization that has been at the forefront of social change for more than a century. Inspired by Jewish values, NCJW courageously takes a progressive stance on issues such as child welfare, women’s rights and reproductive freedom.
The organization partners with local service agencies to provide programs and services that create positive social change throughout the community. Local recipient agencies include: California Area Family Development Center, Chavurat Shalom, Community Coordinated Child Care, CourtWatch, ElderServe, Gilda’s Club of Louisville, Jewish Family and Career Services, Jewish Resource Center, Maryhurst, Student Loan Fund, Suitcase Project, and Yad b’Yad.
The Shop operates with a professional staff and year-round volunteer support. Additional volunteers are needed to assist with Spring Fling. Please email nearlynewshop@gmail.com if you are able to help during the event or during regular shopping and donation hours.
