We are working with an attorney to finalize the Bettina Network Foundation and to shepherd it through a 501(c)3 filing.
If you have asked Bettina Network to manage your Estate Sale, or Moving Sale or Scattering Sale or Antique Sale you know there are two parts to the sale and when it is over everything left is handled by Bettina Network as we work towards leaving the house “Broom Clean” because either it has been sold; the people have deceased and this is one step in the process of settling an estate or etc.
What happens to those ‘left overs’.
That is one of the exciting parts of the sale. At the end of the sale Bettina Network takes everything left and oversees those items getting directly to people who are newly in a home from homelessness. We make sure all of the items go to help furnish the new home of someone or several someones who need all of the things which make life comfortable.
That is a very important step for those leaving a life of living on the street to living in an apartment or other kind of home. They need everything and we try to help provide that by working with those who have vetted people to whom we give the items left over from a sale.
Hopefully, when our 501(c)3 comes through we will be able to give a receipt to the people who have given us their items left over from a sale, which they can include in their federal tax return as a deduction.
There are those who have reached the status of “Gold” members of Bettina Network Foundation because of what they have given and the spirit in which they have given to others.
To know more about what we do to give back – click on the Foundation link on the Bettina Network web site. It is in the process of being updated, but should contain more information shortly.
