Village Thrift Shop: The thrift store receives donated items from the community, making them available to active clients with verified needs at a significant discount of 80% off the thrift store price. Those who cannot afford to pay the discounted price can work in the thrift store to offset the price of their items. Clients in need of community are encouraged to volunteer, finding a loving supportive place where they can contribute and grow. Thrift store items are also offered for sale to the public, producing a revenue stream to support other program activities. Revenue listed above does not include the value of contributed goods sold in the thrift store.
Investing in clients: Love INC works with its partners to supply goods and provide services directly to clients who make the commitment to go beyond their current circumstances and grow through individualized action plans, one step at a time, from need to sustainability. Assistance given included offsetting living and medical expenses, providing life skills training and counseling opportunities, confronting underlying causes of chronic need, encouraging the development of healthy relationships, etc. As a result of Love INC's partnerships with local businesses and agencies, clients benefited from $10,898 of donated professional services in addition to the material goods accounted for in the program expenses listed in this report. While it is not our mission to provide emergency assistance, we provide a resource guide of local agencies who specialize in emergency relief to those in need of economic assistance for immediate, crisis situations.
The Community Transformation: Love INC works to solve county-wide issues that deteriorate the fabric of the community.
