Below is info on the encore shop:
For the last fifty years, St. Paul's Episcopal Church has run a discounted clothing and household goods store called the Encore Shop. Located just off of Poyntz in their historic parsonage, the shop receives, stocks and resells gently-used clothing and household good donations. The shop does about $10,000 in business annually. Profits from the shop go back out into the community in the form of quarterly grants paid to various non-profit organizations; Shepherd’s Crossing, Flint Hills Community Clinic, and The Happy Kitchen.
The Encore Shop is staffed by volunteers from the church and the community. Work responsibilities would be what you might expect from a clothing store: Carrying Boxes, Sorting and Stocking, Customer Service, and Cleaning. Veteran members of the Encore Shop Staff will be there to assist in working the shift. | |
