For Goodness Sake Amy’s Attic

by

In 1934, Amy Roberts Vance decided to develop an organization that would maintain projects to help families of Harrison County. This was the start of the Clarksburg League for Service.

With the vision of Amy going to her attic in the 1930’s to gather needed goods to help families, the members of today felt For Goodness’ Sake- Amy’s Attic was the appropriate title for its 2005 debuting project to continue this philanthropy.

Amy’s Attic supplies needed goods for children and families who might otherwise not be able to obtain them. New and nearly new household items, baby items, career wear, formal attire, baby items, jeans and school supplies are the top featured items at Amy’s Attic. 

The League fundraises to purchase new items and also collects nearly new items from its members and community donations. All donations to Amy’s Attic are tax deductible.

The Clarksburg League for Service partners with schools and social service agencies to obtain referrals to be served.

For more information and a listing of this year’s dates and times, please download our brochure.

Community Outreach

by

Each year, the League for Service participates in a variety of service related projects aimed at helping those less fortunate in our community. Some of the projects in years past include providing over 1,000 mesh backpacks and warm winter coats to Harrison County elementary, middle, and high school students as well as working together with other community service organizations like the Clarksburg Mission, H.I.S. Bridgebuilders, and more.

In March of this past year, we even sponsored an Easter Egg hunt at the Clarksburg-Harrison Public Library. It was a blast! Check out some pictures of the event below:
