Hanover


Have you ever read the old nursery rhyme, “Old Mother Hubbard?”
“Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard
To get her poor dog a bone
But when she came there
The cupboard was bare,
And so the poor dog had none…”

Community Aid is always grateful for the never ending support of our partners in the community. This support comes in the form of clothing donations which feeds our store in Hanover. Hanover was the second store that Community Aid opened in May 2011. Our Hanover Thrift store boasts a 32,000 square foot building which is considered to be the area’s best thrift store. Just like Old Mother Hubbard went to her cupboard and found no bones for her dog, there are seasons at our Hanover store when we experience equal emptiness. Thanks to CBS21 News for producing a story about our empty shelves and sparse clothing racks at our Hanover store. Community Aid in Hanover wants to continue our mission in servicing the community and distributing cash grants to numerous churches and organizations. We can’t effectively minister to nonprofit charitable organizations when we are low in product to sell. So instead of running to your cupboards, run to your closet and donate your gently used clothing. Help us fill the shelves in Hanover.
