Everett senior center gift shop means a lot to seniors

Published 1:30 am Tuesday, July 3, 2018

Everett’s Carl Gibson Senior Center is debating the closing of its gift shop and opening it up as a thrift store.

The gift shop is more than just a store. Seniors contribute items they have made with their own hands, validating them as contributing citizens.

It may not make a lot of money, but it does so much more. It is run by volunteers and it brings us together as a community.

I would like to invite everyone to stop by and give us a little business and sign the petition to save the gift shop.
