“We exist solely on the donations and gifts we receive from individuals, churches and businesses. We receive no funding from the government, so we have to look at every possible opportunity for creating an income stream.
"We have been especially pleased with the thrift store concept because it not only generates income for us but performs a service for the community as well. We work very hard at being good stewards of every dollar and donated item given to us. And every dime that's taken in through our thrift stores goes to the bottom line of Palmer Home—to benefit the children God has entrusted to our care.
"When you give something to us you can know something good's going to happen with it."
