As the
world’s largest for-profit thrift store chain, one of our
core values is to provide benefits for our community through
our charity alliances. Partnering with local charities is not
a byproduct of our business – it’s HOW we do business.
Working with 120 charity offices across the
US, Canada, and Australia, Village des Valeurs provided more than $100
million in funding to our nonprofit partners last year alone!
Here’s how
our charity partnerships work:
-
Our
nonprofit partners contact local residents, seeking
donations of unwanted but reusable clothing and household
items.
-
Village des Valeurs
then pays the nonprofit organization based on the
number of boxes and bags it delivers us. We also pay our
charity partners for individual donations from our
customers, made directly at our stores.
-
Next,
our staff sorts through the donations and selects the
highest quality reusable items. These items are value
priced and displayed in one of our various departments
according to style, use, size and color.
So whether you donate directly to one of our charity partners, or
if you just enjoy bargain hunting at Village des Valeurs, you’re helping
to support the vital programs of our nonprofit partners.
