Spotlight: Good Stuff Thrift

Helping local children

What if you could buy high quality merchandise at considerably lower prices while helping local children at the same time? Thanks to Good Stuff Thrift Stores located in Huntingdon Valley, Buckingham, Doylestown, and Fairless Hills you can accomplish all these goals.

The merchandise changes daily. You can’t beat the prices for the value you’re receiving! Most importantly, every time you buy something, donate or volunteer at Good Stuff Thrift, you are helping KIDS right here in our community and helping to keep our environment GREEN.

All proceeds (minus operating expenses) are donated to 10 local charities that support children: Christ’s Home for Children, Hunting Park Christian Academy, ChoiceOne, Lenape Valley Foundation, Ann Silverman Free Clinic, Bethanna, Young Life, Tree House, Every Good Gift and The Baby Bureau.

In 2022, Good Stuff Thrift donated $800,000 to the above charities, and has donated more than $4,000,000 since opening. Good Stuff Thrift is a locally-owned and operated store, so there is no corporate overhead.

In addition to a great staff, wonderful volunteers provided over 10,000 hours of work in 2022 and generous donors bring lots of great stuff to the four stores every day.

It’s the community participation and God’s blessing that enable Good Stuff Thrift to achieve its mission to be as efficient as possible to maximize contributions to their charities. You can help also by telling friends and sharing GST on your Facebook page. You too can volunteer your time and donate “good stuff” to Good Stuff Thrift.

Drop your donations off at the Huntingdon Valley (2170 County Line Road, Market Place Shop Center) Buckingham (5010 York Road, Routes 202/263), Doylestown (3633 N. Easton Road, 313 and 611) or Fairless Hills store (543 Lincoln Highway, Business Route 1) Monday through Saturday from 10:00am until 5:00pm.

Remember that by patronizing this store, donating your merchandise or volunteering your time you’re helping to change a child’s life forever.
