A Local Community

Walking through the aisles of our stores and looking out over the clothing that so neatly hung brings a few things to mind. Our society is on the cusp of changing the way we view thrift store shopping. Customers represent a diverse ethnic and economic background that helps sustain our stores and provide a strong local economy. It is quite common to see our customers visit with complete strangers while they are shopping. You will often see customers’ helping each other, courtesy is never a foreign idea in our stores among customers.  Community Aid is a place where people know they can find quality clothing at a price that is affordable. However, it goes far beyond that. Our customers become our family.  Customers ask for our cashier’s by name and our cashier’s ask how our customer’s are doing by name. Who would have thought a local thrift store can evoke so much care. In all actuality, Community Aid really is, “neighbors helping neighbors” in more ways than one.
