Community Thrift Store
Our 2021 campaign is "We help Thousands with Millions." We are a full service Thrift store where ALL proceeds go to our grant program. We provide help to over 20 Charitable Organizations throughout Pickens county. We also provide clothes to the disadvantaged at no cost. We utilize an all volunteer work crew where even upper management work pro bono. In the last 20 years we have provided over 9 million dollars in aid.
