The Village Shoppes
The Sharing Center Village Shoppes encompasses a stylish Boutique, Furniture store, and traditional Thrift Store. Each shop is serviced by our Donation Center. Every donation received is thoroughly processed to either sell in one of the stores to generate revenue to support our mission, salvaged with partner organizations such as book stores, metal scrapping centers and electronic refurbishes, or outreached directly to families in need.
Our retail program is a core element of our thriving social enterprise model and greatly supports our mission. We provide our shoppers with quality products and offer a separate voucher desk for privacy with those experiencing poverty.

I'm so thankful for The Sharing Center's Village Shoppes. My house is now a home. It is filled with everything I need, from bunk beds, to bookshelves, toys, and clothes. I absolutely love everything. Thank you! -Nikole, a mother which The Sharing Center supported during her transition into stable housing.
