The Shalom Thrift Shop of Cambridge announced at the Volunteer Appreciation Dinner on Sept. 22, a new milestone by giving a record yearly amount of $254,600 (compared to $165,500 in 2015) to its community partners.

Shalom’s partners assist area individuals in need of food, clothing and shelter. In addition, since its inception in 1981, Shalom has reached another milestone by distributing $2,234,810 to Cambridge area organizations.

The dollars given back to the community are possible because of all the volunteers working at Shalom, the supportive customers, and generous individuals who donate their quality items to Shalom. Since Shalom is operated 100 percent by volunteers, it can give its proceeds back to the community after paying operating costs. Shalom thanks all who choose to shop and donate their used items, and who choose to volunteer in support of the mission of helping those in need.

Shalom accepts good saleable items such as: electrical items for the house, cookware, home decorating, linens of all kinds, clothing, shoes, books, games, toys, small tools, some kinds of furniture and many other types of merchandise. Shalom is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and closes at 3 p.m. on Saturdays.
