This is a wonderful corporation that provides everything from clothing to food to toys to housewares, etc. for the homeless or needy population. My daughter's school (Dos Pueblos) did a food and clothing drive, and then a spare change and toy drive over the holidays, to benefit the Unity Shoppe. I wasn't able to get all of my items together in time, so I went to the unity shoppe itself and made a large donation of clothing (especially heavy jackets) and kitchen ware. I was truly impressed with the efficiency inside the shop. I've been to many thrift stores, but this was a cross between a house with a kitchen and a small little clothing store. It was so much more inviting than the norm. This nonprofit benefits the local population tremendously. I especially love how much attention they pay to needy children. Being a child who is homeless must be horribly scary. Getting toys for Christmas and new clothing and food is considered a luxury for them, and it's something most of us take for granted. If you can donate to this organization, your money and items will be greatly appreciated. They only take gently used, in good condition items! This way they can give something of quality to those who need it. Their store is easy to get to on Chapala Street in downtown Santa Barbara. There's parking right outside and you can get a receipt for a tax donation. I haven't looked into volunteering yet, but I'm sure they could always use help.

Prices are fair, employees are friendly, lots of inventory and excellent location. I’ve been to most of the thrift stores in the area and this one is one of the best.

What a wonderful organization! From their store on Chapala Street which supports families with food and other necessities, to the retail store on State Street where you can buy quality gifts and clothing and household items.... Unity Shoppe is a treasure.

The unity shop has really cleaned up their active for the years! It's always been a great go to for awesome charitable guides but they have really done excellent merchandise display, I have organized things very well, and have a lovely selection of everything from new tiff InTouch items available. Their prices well although not the lowest, support a good cause and because of their likely extraordinarily high rent to be on State Street downtown, it's understandable that their prices are not thrift store level. However I was able to find many awesome deals on everything from very current There are now several storefronts to next to each other on State Street and I believe still one additional location, again they are clean neat bright well organized almost nothing is out of place... They have some very fine antiques, all kinds of jewelry it's really very extensive and well thought out compared to years before.fashionable clothing to mid century modern vintage and other awesome furniture, trinkets knickknacks gifts galore, luggage a lot of brand new items that have been donated from local companies and a lot of things brand new with tags so if you are a reseller of items or interested in trying things out and still being able to turn them over if they're not quite right for you, it's still within the range of reasonable pricing to do so in my opinion. Definitely worth a stop in and if you're looking to furnish a new apartment or find something fun and new to you if you're into buying things that are pre-loved or may still have the tags on them anyway, it's a great place to go as most of the other charity shops like it has been moved to Goleta and they have really capitalized on taking over some shop spaces that were not being as well utilized. Enjoyed all I got and want more!!!
