Beacon Community Services’ Thrift Shops offer affordable, convenient shopping for your entire family. And they’re a great place to donate items you no longer need. Because loyal donors and shoppers help our Greater Victoria community, too! We’re proud that Beacon Community Services’ thrift shop proceeds are 100% dedicated to not-for-profit programs and services — and we’re grateful for the community support that makes them possible. For more than 30 years, Thrift Shop proceeds have funded many LOCAL Beacon services and programs. Services like the Out of the Rain shelter for homeless youth. Kids’ literacy and play programs. Quality care for seniors living with dementia. And more. We’re also proud to host free training programs at some Beacon Thrift Shops. Our shops are encouraging places where you can learn the skills you need for working in the retail industry. Come visit us! more... See more text
