30 years of Cape Cod
Mass Appeal was started in 1989 by two single mothers in Eastham, MA. They had a vision of swapping used clothing with other mothers, and began in one of their garages where they stored donated clothes.
They soon outgrew the space and in 1996 finally settled in our current location. |
