How does the Rescuing Families’ Halloween community marketplace raise money for the nonprofit?

Neighbors had fun browsing a variety of 35 local vendors’ tables at Franklin Square based-nonprofit Rescuing Families’ Halloween community marketplace on Oct. 19.

Attendees also had the chance to enter a 50/50 raffle and spin a wheel for prizes as part of the nonprofit’s event.

Vendors at the marketplace included Rescuing Families founder Gina Centauro’s very own Truly Unique Designs, Silent Stitches, Joe’s Wooden Creations and more.

Community members had fun playing games like plastic axe throwing during the last community marketplace of the year.

Events like the community marketplace help Rescuing Families raise funds for its upcoming projects. Soon, the organization hopes to start renovations on a Valley Stream home to help retrofit the house for a disabled man.

Rescuing Families continues to raise money with upcoming events throughout the year. For more information about upcoming events, visit RescuingFamilies.org.
