The staff and volunteers at the Thrift Store appreciate a phone call before you drop off gently used, in-season donations, to ensure that there is space for the donation. We regret that we are usually unable to pick up donations.
The Kelowna Women's Shelter Thrift Store benefits our clients and community in the following ways:
- By providing clothing and household necessities free of charge to women and children who have been impacted by family violence.
- By increasing the capacity of the Shelter to store and manage donations without taking up limited space in the Shelter itself.
- By incorporating essential skills training and creating jobs.
- By providing needed items to persons living on the street.
- By raising awareness about family violence and creating a way for the public to easily access information about the Shelter and our services.
- By promoting a practical way for members of the community to make a real difference (by donating or volunteering).
- By initiating opportunities to re-use and recycle items that would otherwise end up in the local landfill.
- By generating revenue from sales to fund the programs and services of the Shelter that do not receive sustained government funding.
