Trinity Thrift Shop Open – walking distance from campus!
Don’t you hate it when there are too many Fridays in a month so you have to wait 3 weeks for the Trinity Thrift Shop to open??
We are looking forward to welcoming our shoppers once more during our next sale day Friday, November 7th, from 8:30 am to 1 pm.
We’re starting to put out holiday decorations so before you hit the big box stores, check us out!! Yup! Not too early to start thinking of decorating… At least, that’s what I’m told! 😀
We are proud to continue to share all of our proceeds with charities in our community, such as City Team, Chester Eastside, Pathways PA, and the Chester Children’s Chorus, among many others.
Donations are accepted Thursdays (8:30am to 11:30am) and on sale days. Unfortunately, we cannot accept computers & peripherals, furniture, car seats, and helmets.
The Thrift Shop is located at 301 N Chester Rd, Swarthmore (entrance off the circle drive on College Ave).
Follow us on Instagram @Trinity.Thrift.Shop for more updates. Be sure to share this email with friends and family! We have plenty of treasures for all.
See you on the 7th!!
