Thrift Store Built to Heal

A new thrift store called The Purpose Collective has opened, run by CNADA, a nonprofit fighting domestic abuse and sexual assault. Born from lost grant funding, it’s a community-driven lifeline: every dollar from selling donated goods goes directly to helping survivors. In just weeks, it’s already received over a thousand items and nearly $2,000, fueled by local generosity. More than just clothes and furniture, it restores dignity to those escaping abuse, giving them agency and hope. Volunteers — many with personal ties to the cause — power this grassroots effort across seven counties, offering everything from housing to legal aid. Donate anytime, day or night — this is how communities come together to rebuild lives. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
