Morning Thrift Store volunteer

Thrift Store

The CHATT Foundation clothing program offers free weekly clothing and monthly shoes for homeless participants. The thrift store also provides household goods for clients who are moving into permanent supportive housing. The design of our thrift store is not to make money, but to empower participants with the ability to make choices and encourage dignity.

Overall Goal: To assist Staff in ensuring an organized and well-stocked store, from which clients can shop. 

Ideal Volunteer: Individuals or groups willing to clean, assist our homeless participants with shopping, and help Thrift Store staff with organizing and daily operations.

Volunteers should expect to interact with our homeless participants. Volunteers are encouraged to independently stock items and make decisions for best organization. Volunteers should expect to walk up and down stairs to access items from the basement.
