Embrace Sustainability this Earth Day by Making the Shift to Thrift

At The Salvation Army Thrift Store, Earth Day holds special significance as we are committed to preserving our planet through retail and reuse. Making environmentally conscious choices is paramount.

By choosing to donate and shop at our thrift stores, you extend the lifespan of gently used items, reduce textile waste in landfills, and decrease the demand for new clothing production. Making second hand your first choice directly contributes to preserving the planet, saving your pocket, and caring for your local communities.

Preserving our planet
By donating and shopping at The Salvation Army Thrift Store, you are giving pre-loved items a second chance to be reused, preventing them from ending up in landfills. Last year, we diverted over 87 million pounds from local landfills.

Saving your wallet
At your local Salvation Army Thrift Store, you can purchase items at low cost. This means you are not only helping save the planet, but also making a budget-friendly choice.

Caring for your community
Each donation and purchase at our Thrift Stores support local Salvation Army Programs and Services. These include foodbanks, shelters, summer camps, drug rehabilitation, emergency relief services and more.

Make every day Earth Day! Join us in making a shift to thrift for a sustainable, affordable, and community-driven lifestyle!
