Lots of bargains, lots of people.
Minks to Sinks had its first rummage sale organized by volunteers in Wilton in 1931 to benefit the Nursing Association’s Well Child Program.
A women-run organization with more than 80 years of history, Minks to Sinks brings donations and deals to the Wilton area twice each year. All proceeds of these epic tag sales benefit Family & Children’s Agency.
Hundreds of thousands of items are donated each year, and it is the nearly 200 dedicated volunteers who make the sale possible.
More information about the sale and Family & Children’s Agency is available at MinksToSinks.org and FamilyandChildrensAgency.org.
