Many Dallas-area nonprofits operate second-hand shops as a second source of revenue. These stores double as a fantastic training ground for underserved people seeking job skills in retail and management. Not only that, but those served shop for free, too.
Most charity thrift stores accept gently used clothing, toys, housewares, books, furniture, seasonal décor, electronic, appliances, and more. Some even offer pickup services.
Take the opportunity to clean out any excesses in your home and support an organization doing incredible work at the same time!
