Chattanooga Room in the Inn Thrift Store
We are in the process of opening our very first thrift store! Read about our progress below.
We are excited to announce plans for a future thrift store! Once we have a location, volunteers can start almost immediately. Until then, you can be on our mailing list to receive updates and learn what will be needed and when.​
The funds generated from our thrift store will directly support residents at Chattanooga Room in the Inn, providing essential services and resources. Your contribution makes a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve. Thank you for your donation!
As of today, our store site is still under construction. We found out there was a delay with paperwork, that delayed the construction crew, but they are working hard to get our site done as quickly as possible.

Under Construction
We are happy to announce we have officially signed a lease this week and are now in the planning stages for construction to the store site. The location will be announced soon! We don't want donations arriving before we get there ;) We are so excited for the potential revenue and we're appreciative all of you will be by our side as we open our very first thrift store!

If you'd like to promote our thrift store to friends, family, co-workers, and everyone else in the meantime, please share our thrift store flyer by clicking HERE to download. We greatly appreciate your support!
