DONATION POLICY
The LCOC Thrift Shop is pleased to offer residents and visitors a place to search for treasure; and we appreciate that so many people in our community want to donate. Proceeds from our Thrift Shop sales contribute to the purchase of non-perishable food for our Food Pantry.
Our budget and space is limited; donations that are broken or are not sellable require disposal and this is costly. Likewise, we have space constraints- and cannot serve as a storage facility.
Effective May 1, 2023
- DONATIONS will be accepted on MONDAYS and TUESDAYS by appointment only.
CALL 207-733-5262 to speak to a member of our staff.
