The Clothesline Sale is made possible by donations from Sewickley Academy families, alumni, and the surrounding communities. It is staffed entirely by volunteers, who generously offer their time (over 2,500 hours) and resources during August and September to transform Snyder Gym into a giant used clothing sale.

The sale is a fundraiser for the Academy and a great resource for residents of our local communities.

In the community, the Clothesline Sale made donations to:

Center For Hope in Ambridge
Genesis of Pittsburgh
Dress for Success
Goodwill
Vietnam Veterans of America
Girls & Boys Hope
Adoption Connection (Beaver)

In addition, due to connected community members, others beyond our local borders were able to benefit from the Clothesline Sale:

African communities in Mali, West Africa
