New Beginnings Thrift is a thrift store supporting the local non-profit, New Beginnings, a biblically-based discipleship program. The program provides re-entry services for men and women seeking a better way of life after being released. Its mission is to teach them to be independent, self-supporting, and stable, becoming an asset to their family, church, friends, and community. The vision is for the county to have the lowest recidivism, crime, and homeless rate.
The store features nice people working and friendly, welcoming employees who are helpful and kind. It is easy to shop, a go-to for secondhand finds, and customers can get in and out quickly. The store has a fitting room and offers great pricing on items like women's tops. Shoppers can find unique items, and the money spent goes to this good and worthy cause. Proceeds help people getting back on their feet, supporting a life-changing program that provides opportunities. The mission of this establishment should be supported by all.
Love the store and the staff. I wish I had more time to shop when I'm there. Fully support the mission of this organization.

The store is clean & well organized. The people working there are great ! They have pretty much anything you might need... Plus... There is a nice little section of God oriented things.

I appreciate the care they use handling items I donate. That's not the case with other thrift stores in Placerville.
