Our Retail and Thrift Store Services

WHY A RESALE STORE?

Charitably giving is down and resale stores sales are up. It has a low investment for the rate of return . Shopping secondhand stores, once the passion of an eccentric minority, is becoming a mainstream activity as the economy continues to weaken.

In addition to the determined scavengers who have long hunted for vintage dresses and side tables at flea markets, some consumers are now looking to the resale industry as a cheaper way to buy everything from computers to designer jeans to Sub-Zero refrigerators.

Heightening demand is the fact that the industry has worked hard to transform itself, with many store owners adopting sophisticated marketing techniques, building chain operations and adding stores in affluent suburbs. Determined to shed their image as dank  and dirty for the down and out, to stores that sell used goods have installed better lights, dressing rooms, fresh aromas and even coffee bars.

HOW WILL IT HELP MINISTRIES?

The resale store provides the public with reasonable priced goods. We carry clothes, shoes, toys, furniture, appliances, jewelry, antiques and much more. When you purchase items at our thrift store, you are not only benefiting yourself, but also the lives of the hurting and needy in our community. The dollars generated at the Store go back into the ministries that the Resale Centers  supports!  These stores can generate enough resource funds by purchasing their goods to support several ministries for a year.

WHO GETS THE HELP?

The first to get help will be our customers by being able to buy top quality merchandise for more than 75% off the original price. The second will be our support ministries that will receive the funds to grow their ministry. The third will be the people each ministry partners with, by having the money to meet the needs of the ministry. Finally the ministries we partner with will be blessed financially every time you ( our Customer) make a sale.
