Where Does the Money Go?

It’s a question worth asking.

When you shop at Good Neighbor Thrift, where does your money go?

It goes much further than the cash register.

Good Neighbor Thrift is operated by Crossroads Assistance Ministry, and the proceeds from the store help Crossroads provide practical assistance to Estes Valley neighbors who are going through a challenging season of life.

Your purchase can help put food on a table, keep the lights on, provide rent assistance, purchase needed medications, fill a gas tank, provide school supplies, or help someone obtain the basic necessities they need to get through a difficult time.

But it goes beyond meeting an immediate need.

Crossroads also invests in programs that help people move toward greater stability and self-sufficiency. Because sometimes the best assistance isn't simply helping someone get through today—it's helping them build a better tomorrow.  Our greatest impact is accomplished by working closely with our extensive network of collaborative partners.

And there’s something beautiful about the way this works.

Someone donates an item. Someone else finds a treasure. And somewhere along the way, a neighbor receives a helping hand.

That’s the Good Neighbor Thrift story.

So the next time you shop, donate, or simply tell someone about Good Neighbor Thrift, remember: you are helping turn gently used things into meaningful opportunities for people in our community.

Your purchase makes a difference. Your donation makes a difference. Your generosity makes a difference.

Shop. Donate. Give. And help Crossroads continue being there when our neighbors need us most.
