* The Salvation Army is looking for items that can be resold in their Thrift Stores, such as housewares, clothing, shoes, bikes, furniture, lamps, artwork, purses, luggage, games, etc. A tax receipt will be given onsite in exchange for dona tions given. One hundred percent of the profits from Salvation Army Thrift Stores is returned back to the community and ensures continued funding of local programs where men and women regain their dignity, self-sufficiency, and sta bility through a 6-month live-in program. Your second-hand items can give second chances. Contact the Community Office for more information and what items specifically the donation truck will not accept.
