ABOUT OUR FREE STORE

• The St. Thomas More Free Store is a community outreach ministry of St. Thomas More Catholic Community which provides clothing and small housewares for free. We offer new and gently used clothing, linens, shoes, toiletries, and small houseware items, free of charge.
• The store is open on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays of the month from 10am-noon for shoppers.
• Donations can be dropped off in the bins outside the entrance to the store when it is open or in the church vestibule during STM Mass times.
• We are located in the basement of St. Thomas More Catholic School.
• To best serve as many shoppers as possible we have a limit of 2 bags (provided by Free Store staff) and 1 large item. We serve an average of 70 shoppers each weekend and never ask for documentation of any kind.
• We are always looking for volunteers to help sort, stock and staff the store. Any amount of time is helpful and greatly appreciated.
