Shelter Thrift Stores Provide Assistance to COVID-19 Victims and Community...
As the homeless shelter has been re-purposed over this time to provide hotel assistance due to the COVID--19 virus and shelter-in-place order issued by the governor, the Beacon Rescue Mission decided to leverage their Thrift Store locations and make them double as temporary Food Bank locations for the community.
"We cleared out all the shelter's food pantry and brought the three chest freezers to the thrift stores...we just wanted to do anything we could to help those in need."
Amos Love - Executive Director

The Thrift Stores have also been providing the community with much needed goods such as Hand Sanitizer, Cleaning Disinfectants, and Toilet Paper.
And unlike many companies in the area, who are taking advantage of customers by elevating prices/price gouging, the Beacon stores have provided all of these products at cost. Though a limit is still in place for the quantity of products purchased, the price is fair and the quality is top notch. A local cleaning supply manufacturer has partnered with the thrift store locations to make sure that they do not run out of supply.
