BUREAU DRAWER THRIFT SHOP
Shop Hours: Monday – Friday, 12:30pm – 3:30pm, Tuesday nights until 7pm
Located in the rear of Interfaith Social Services’ office at 105 Adams Street in Quincy, MA
The Bureau Drawer Thrift Shop offers affordably priced clothing for the whole family as well as toys, books and household goods. All items are donated by caring individuals, churches and other local groups.
The shop is staffed entirely by a dedicated crew of volunteers. In addition to raising funds to help support all of Interfaith Social Services’ programs this unique retail store also acts as a social gathering place for many retired individuals and socially conscience residents. Volunteers serve customers, sort clothing and make sure that all incoming items are of good quality. We are always looking for volunteers who want to join in the fun, click here for more information.
The Thrift Shop is supported by generous donations from the community, satisfied shoppers and dedicated volunteers.
Donations can be dropped off at ISS’ offices, 105 Adams St. in Quincy from 8:30-3:30 Monday – Friday, and until 7:00pm on Tuesdays. After hours donations can be left in the rear of the building, near the back door. Here are some items that are always in demand:
