This ARC Thrift Store took over the old Safeway building when Safeway moved to a larger facility four blocks north. I find it comes in handy when I have a little time to kill between appointments. The store is quite well run and kept in as best of order as can be expected. Many non-violent offenders serve their community sentence helping at the store, so the personnel can be 'colorful' at times.
Continuously at this location for six months or more.: yes
Structure does NOT have wheels.: yes
Charity name: Association of Retarded Citizens (ARC)
How does this organization help others?:
Arc began with a mission – a mission to help children with developmental disabilities. Two families got together to discuss the needs of their children and soon realized that they needed a way to raise money to fund programs. Their concern turned into an idea. That idea has grown throughout Colorado. With 12 Arc Chapters and 19 stores on the Front Range, Arc is able to provide funding and programming for individuals with developmental disabilities and their families.
Items accepted:
Any usable household item - clothing, appliances, books, knick-knacks, shoes, CDs, furniture, etc.
