Charity Closed

At 3:00 P.M. on Thursday, April 27, 2012 a letter was hand delivered to Granny Tsai's Resale and Donation Center.

The Board of Granny Tsai Charity Inc. announces the charity will be closed and dissolved. The last day of business for the Resale and Donation Center will be Monday, April 30, 2012.

Below is the general information released via email and posted on Facebook.

 

 

I am extremely sorry to inform you that effective close of business on Monday, April 30, 2012 Granny Tsai Charity will close and be dissolved in accordance with IRS regulations.

Everyone has worked long hours and tried so hard to give the ...University City community a Charity that could work for them. In spite of all the efforts put forth by employees, volunteers, health and social services outreach agencies, donors and customers, the results we needed just aren't here at this time.

All items at our Resale and Donation Center will be reduced 70% Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Thank you for being a part of our community efforts.

With appreciation,

Tom Lemke
General Manager
