Thrift Store/Warehouse
Thrift Store — 802 E State St, Trenton, NJ 08609
The people of the Wilbur section and the East Ward of Trenton need help with other necessities of life, besides housing. In 1989, Father Brian McCormick and neighborhood people established ‘The Clothing Store’ (now renamed ‘The Thrift Store’) and the chiefly Construction Storage Warehouse. The Thrift Store is part of the community outreach segment related to the mission of BCHT.
We welcome and encourage donations! Dedicated volunteers from the Wilbur neighborhood organize and display the items and run the store. Gloria Phillips, Thrift Store manager, prices new inventory every Saturday. Please call her at the store at (609) 222-5537 to schedule a donations pick-up.
Used clothing, furniture, and appliances donated by people and organizations from all over the Trenton area are sold at a minimal cost or given away free of charge for certain people who have or are undergoing certain circumstances, known as NOWs (‘Needs Over Wants’).
Come by our Thrift Store to grab a bag full of quality resale clothing for just $8.00. Explore what’s in stock during our days/hours of operation (Friday, 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM; Saturday, 9:00 AM -2:00 PM) at 802 East State Street, Trenton, NJ 08609.
Holiday Giving Events — Food Baskets & Gift Sharing
Every year, BCHT provides food baskets for the needy on Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. We also host annual gift sharing events that provide impoverished families with Christmas gifts, like Walmart or ShopRite Gift Cards and more, generously donated by local individuals and organizations.
Both celebratory efforts are diligently coordinated by our Thrift Store’s hard-working volunteers. To help out with these programs, please call (609) 222-5537.
