Our Thrift Shop is a 501(c)3 organization of Transfiguration Parish.

The Thrift Shop accepts gently-used donations of and provides low-cost retail sales of clothing and household items to members of our community, some of whom send these items to their homelands to help people in need. Proceeds from sales help support Transfiguration outreach programs.

We believe that everyone has skills they can use to help others in our community. Skills for Donations helps match our members and their skills with opportunities to serve others. For example, a skilled woodworker might offer to build a custom cabinet for someone else. Once this service is performed, the recipient makes a cash donation to Transfiguration representing the value of the service. To date there has been a wide range of skills and services shared, benefiting the participating community members and the church.
