Update

It Takes a Village will have a Vendor's Booth at the Sangamon River Music Festival. Please be sure to come out and show your support. 

We are making great progress in raising money for our Retail Space. We have a goal of $1,000 and we have raised $216 in just a few weeks! We have reached out to local churches asking for support and donations. We are hopefully to obtain donations on a one-time bases and to secure monthly donations to help us stay up and running. 

Please be in prayer for us!

God Bless,
Heather Denam, President

Securing a Larger Location

It Takes a Village has found a larger retail space, with an incredible property manager willing to work with us! We need to raise around $1,000 to pay our deposit, turn on power, and build hanging racks for the clothing.

We are excited to announce we can now accept donations through Paypal. 

With a larger location, we will be able to fill the needs of our community faster, have more items to offer at one time, save profits to go towards our Annual Christmas Giveaway and purchase large items that families need but we do not have, such as beds or washer and dryers. 

Every little bit helps! 

God Bless
