“Community” isn’t just a part of our title…
Every item donated to SVdP CARES Community Thrift Store goes back into the community through everyday purchases! With your generous donations, our local St. Pete store provides household goods, clothing, furniture, and other necessities free of charge to those in need through our voucher system, managed by SVdP CARES and the SVdP Conferences in South Pinellas County. The items that aren’t able to be sold or given are recycled.
If that isn’t enough, shoppers can feel good knowing that close to 90% of every dollar they spend goes back into the housing programs that give individuals, families, and veterans a hand up from homelessness.
On average, SVdP CARES delivers over $45,000 worth of furniture and clothing back into the community, with over $100,000 worth of goods given to anyone in need who walks through the CTS doors!
