About
Welcome! Since our Grand Opening in 2019, more than 130,000 customers have impacted our community for good by repurposing over 700,000 donated items, generating revenues and profits that are reinvested and distributed locally to meet needs, fund programs, and support initiatives for good.
It all Started With a Question
What if we really could be a Ray of Hope to our community by converting donations of clothing, furniture, and household items to revenues and profits that would serve, fund, bless, and unite people in North Marion County?
At Ray of Hope Community Thrift Store, we aspire to answer that question every day in every possible way. We dream of new ways to connect, cooperate, collaborate, and care for our entire community. We aspire to infuse others with a renewed spirit of hope, dignity, service, compassion, and commitment and inspire them to join us as we bless the community we live and serve in.
We invite you to be part of this grand adventure. Help us positively impact the lives of, not only our thrifters, resellers, donors, vendors, volunteers and staff, but the many agencies, nonprofits, ministries, and helping organizations we support who serve vulnerable, at risk, marginalized, and underserved people and families in our community.
