How does Thrift Town get its merchandise? Thrift Town/NSC is a for-profit business that buys a large majority of its merchandise from several non-profit organizations. The money they raise from selling us "recycled goods" enables them to provide much needed programs and services to people in need. Since 1972 Thrift Town/NSC has generated nearly 60 million dollars in total profits for non-profit organizations. We at NSC/Thrift Town are proud to be part of such a meaningful and worth while fundraising effort. Thank you for your interest and support!
What does Thrift Town do with the stuff it can't sell? Because of Thrift Town´s commitment to responsible recycling, any merchandise not suitable for sale at Thrift Town is sold to outside companies who either use the material to manufacture other products and/or distribute the clothing to third world countries. Although it takes more work, it is a much better than adding more stuff to our landfills.
