History
In 1982, a group of forward thinking Moms from Piedmont, CA started to collect items they no longer needed to resell to others to raise money for their public school district. They were given an unused room at Haven's School. They quickly outgrew the space and rented a store front on Piedmont Avenue in Oakland, CA. They formed a nonprofit organization to benefit the children of Piedmont. Much of this money is donated to the Piedmont Educational Foundation. Over 1 million has been donated in 30 years.
