This is an organization that helps the needy, the homeless, people who've lost their homes to fire, etc. They do not maintain a store and sell the items. Everything is given away. They take furniture, clothes, etc. They do not take food as such but if you give it to them along with the other items, they do see to it that it gets to one of the food banks.

Suzanne Fuqua is their Community Facilitator (352-586-3494). Their # is 352-753-0801 or fax 352-7930804. All donations are tax deductible. She delivered an itemized tax statement to me herself. When she was here, she told me more about what they do and I personally think it is terrific. Her business card also lists 2 websites: devereux.org and sfuqua@devereux.org. as well as all the numbers. If I remember correctly, she told me that she lives in Hadley.
