One to Another Thrift Shop
A
new thrift store that recently opened in Gilroy has been making quite an impact on the community . One to Another Thrift Shop , located at 381 First Street , Unit B , held its grand opening this past December , and has enjoyed great support from the community while , at the same time , giving back . The store employs a unique approach to its business strategy , as it focuses solely on high quality items while maintaining affordable prices . This strategy has paid dividends .
One to Another , like other local thrift stores , sells a wide range of items , from clothing , to furniture , to toys , books , and more . And yet , there is so much more to the store . Sponsored by Gilroy ’ s Pleasant Valley Church , One to Another uses a significant portion of its proceeds to support several Gilroy charities .
“ Our church had been looking for a way to make a bigger impact on our community , and One to Another has become that way ,” said Pastor Paul Carrasco . “ We strive to maintain a clean , well-organized store , and with a wonderful group of volunteer workers , as well as quality donations from local residents , we ’ ve been able to set ourselves to really help those in need .”
