When you donate to Saint Vincent de Paul Thrift Store, you are helping to make someone else’s journey just a little bit easier.
Donating a pair of shoes may just help someone else take one step, and then another, and another.
Donating your old home decor could help pay for someone to have a home that they dream of someday decorating.
Your gifts are used for their blessings.
And we are here for every bit of it!
We appreciate your compassion, charity, conscientiousness, and time – and we want to make the most of it!
