DONATION POLICY

The LCOC Thrift Shop is pleased to offer residents and visitors a place to search for treasure; and we appreciate that so many people in our community want to donate. Proceeds from our Thrift Shop sales contribute to the purchase of non-perishable food for our Food Pantry.

Our budget and space is limited; donations that are broken or are not sellable require disposal and this is costly. Likewise, we have space constraints- and cannot serve as a storage facility.
Effective May 1, 2023
- DONATIONS will be accepted on MONDAYS and TUESDAYS by appointment only.
CALL 207-733-5262 to speak to a member of our staff.

- Upon arriving, our staff will come out to your car to review your items.
   Staff reserves the right to decide what we can/cannot accept
   Staff will transport accepted items into our facility

- PLEASE CALL AHEAD- We so appreciate your generosity and want to be able to accommodate your visit. Please call ahead and confirm that we are open and can accept your donation.
