Mission & Purpose
 Common Goods is a trendy thrift store for the
community-minded shopper, owned by Bridges of Hope.
Common Goods offers high-quality goods at reasonable
prices, including clothing, fashion
accessories, casual and one-of-a-kind home furnishings,
and unique furniture pieces.
Common Goods was created to be a venue for community
members to give their time, talents and treasures, which
supports the ongoing work of
Bridges of Hope.
Our goal is to have a major impact on the number of
products leaving our area and entering our landfills. We
work to recycle and redistribute these goods within the
community, extending their use. As a result, local
donations stay local and proceeds from the store serve
local families in need. |
