The Totally Yours Thrift Store grand opening 2:00 p.m. – 6:00 p.m.
|
The Totally Yours Thrift Store is celebrating its grand opening on July 17, 2008 from 2 – 6 with an open house.
As young people begin life on their own, their basic household and family needs are what so often become neglected. While they make it a priority to pay the bills, they may sit on the floor to watch TV. Or they may eat every dinner with just one clean fork. Or their children may sleep in the same clothes they wear all day. Now youth aging out of custody in middle Tennessee can receive assistance with these items at the Totally Yours Thrift Store. Youth Connections has been serving as a central place for young people to come for aid for three years and has now expanded to offer a thrift store where young adults can obtain household goods, clothing, baby items, small electronics, and much more. The grand opening celebration is for the public, but the store will only be open to youth who have aged out of custody. No money will be exchanged at the store, as the young people will earn vouchers to “purchase” the items they need. Youth Connections is a program of Monroe Harding.
