Giving Back
Sometimes we feel helpless to make a difference in a world where there is such great need... making a difference starts with giving. We believe giving back is one of the most valuable things a person can do; whether you're an individual, business, family or group.
Most of the items that are unable to be used or sold in our shop are passed on to other worthy causes and charities. In addition to helping when need arises in our community, we have partnered with a few groups whose focus is to provide for children, women, and families who are less fortunate and/or are experiencing hardships. We encourage you to click the links below to learn more about the charities and help if you desire and are able.
