The Thrift Store

Our Mission

We want to ensure that families in the community can afford to purchase the things they need, give an avenue for donors to share with others while also providing a thrifter’s paradise. Profits will be used to fund mission projects. This mission outreach supports Concord United's desire to share Christ, serve others and grow in faith.

Donation Values & Taxes

The Thrift Store staff/volunteers (business manager) will issue and sign a receipt with donations that are dropped off during donation hours. Donors are responsible for maintaining all tax records as well as assigning values to donated items. The IRS allows you to take deductions on clothing and household items that are in good condition. The US Internal Revenue Service requires that you value your donation when filing your return. You can download a list that will give approximate values for your donated items and you can use these ranges as a general guide to assess the value.

Volunteers Make the Difference

What can I do?

 

Throughout the week, our volunteers assist donors by receiving donations daily. Once these treasures are received there are volunteers that then sort, price and stock the many items donated. Volunteers also work the store by assisting customers, restocking items from the dressing rooms, and assisting the customer as needed. Many volunteers are needed to make this ministry a success. Come serve with us as we show the love of Christ to all that enter our doors.
