A Blessing For All...
The Thrift Store is an important part of our ministry. Revenue generated from store sales cover operational expenses. Tax receipts are available for monetary and item donations.
You can shop for a variety of quality, affordable gently used items such as clothing, accessories, toys, knick-knacks, books, cd’s, dvd’s, furniture, housewares and sports & camping equipment to name a few. If you are looking for something specific, don’t hesitate to ask.

To Those In Need...
The community of churches, service club, schools, business and individual donors enable us to provide assistance. Local volunteer fire departments and Lions clubs are vital in the operation as they organize and conduct annual Christmas and spring food drives which accounts for approximately half of our food supply. We appreciate all who are able to support our work. Please contact us if your are aware of anyone in need. Confidentiality is assured.
Food Hampers:
- size is based on the number of people per household (single, couple, family).
- contains non-perishable food based on a standard list.
- considers special diet needs (baby, diabetic).
- is equivalent to approximately ten or more days’ supply of groceries.
- hampers are generally delivered except for special circumstances and arrive in private unmarked vehicles.
- may contain produce and frozen meat when available.
Cash donations allow us to purchase grocery store vouchers for milk, margarine, eggs, bread and other fresh food or items we are short on. TAX RECEIPTS ARE AVAILABLE.
