History

The Thrift Store Senior Center Thrift Store in Wenatchee, Washington, began as a grassroots effort spearheaded by the Wenatchee Senior Center in the late 1980s.

Recognizing the increasing financial challenges faced by many seniors in the community, a group of dedicated volunteers envisioned a unique way to provide affordable goods and generate revenue for the center’s programs.

Initially operating out of a small, donated space, the store quickly gained popularity as a vital resource for seniors seeking gently used clothing, household items, furniture, and books.

The store’s success stemmed from its dual purpose: offering a convenient and low-cost shopping experience for the community and directly supporting the Senior Center’s services, including meals, transportation, and recreational activities.

Over the years, it has evolved into a beloved institution, deeply woven into the fabric of Wenatchee.

Through consistent fundraising efforts, community donations, and the tireless dedication of its volunteers, the Thrift Store Senior Center has remained committed to its mission.

It continues to be a source of both financial stability and a welcoming place for seniors to connect, find needed items, and contribute to the well-being of the community.

The store’s longevity is a testament to its positive impact and the unwavering support it receives from Wenatchee residents.
