THRIFT STORE & CLOTHING OUTREACH

ABOUT OUR PROGRAM - THRIFT.JPG

ABOUT OUR PROGRAM

HOY South Bay Outreach staff and volunteers operate a Thrift Store which includes a Garden Shop. We offer low prices and wonderful items (all donated) to all our shoppers. Gently used articles of clothing, shoes, and kitchenware are available.

​

Our Thrift Store offers people in need of exceptional bargains which helps them stretch their budgets. These stores help our clients to purchase clothing, shoes, and household goods at drastically reduced prices so that clients can pay their rent and keep their families in a safe and secure home.

CLOTHING OUTREACH

We provide a Clothing Outreach service for clients. Many have used this service to obtain nice clothing for job interviews, etc.

​​

Men: every Tuesday 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.​

​

Women and families: every Wednesday 9:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.

MERCHANDISE DONATIONS

 Your gifts of clothes, housewares and other non-perishable items offer a helping hand to a family who has suffered a loss because of fire, flood or crime. Warm blankets and coats, rain gear, tarps, plus clothes provide comfort to our homeless neighbors. All these gifts help to brighten the lives of others and give them hope for the future.
