Our Mission
Transforming Lives Through Thrift
Mission Thrift Store Kitchener is a non-profit, volunteer-driven Christian thrift store, proudly serving our community as part of a network of more than 50 stores across Canada. Our purpose is simple: to turn donated goods into life-changing impact both locally and around the world.
When you shop at Mission Thrift Store Kitchener, you are doing more than finding affordable clothing, furniture, books, and household goods. You are making sustainable choices that keep items out of landfills and within reach for families in need. Every purchase supports our community by providing quality second-hand goods at affordable prices while also funding charitable programs that bring hope and transformation worldwide.
Donating to Mission Thrift Store Kitchener is just as impactful. Your gently used clothing, furniture, and household goods are resold to generate funds that go directly toward supporting literacy programs, community development, and humanitarian efforts. In fact, 100% of proceeds are reinvested into charitable initiatives that change lives. By donating, you extend the life of your belongings and create opportunities for others to benefit.
Volunteers are at the heart of our mission. Whether sorting donations, assisting customers, repairing furniture, or helping with pickups, every volunteer plays an essential role in creating a welcoming space that makes a difference. Volunteering here is not only a way to give back, it is also a chance to learn new skills, build friendships, and contribute to something bigger than yourself.
Together, through shopping, donating, and volunteering, we are transforming lives. Every item, every hour, and every contribution makes a lasting impact.

Small Acts, Big Impact
Shop, donate, or volunteer—every act of generosity helps bring hope and transformation to someone in need.

Shop
It’s like a treasure hunt every time you walk into Mission Thrift Store. You never know what you’ll find, but somehow it ends up being exactly what you needed—and it costs a lot less than retail. Even better, your purchase helps change lives in your community and around the world with 100% of proceeds supporting local and global missions. That’s what we call a win-win.
Donate
Letting go of gently used clothing and household items can do more than just clear your space — it can bring hope to someone else. Your donated goods are sold in our store, and the proceeds help support life-changing ministry work in communities both near and far.
Every item you give helps turn compassion into action. If you’d rather give directly, we gratefully accept monetary donations both online and in-store. Together, we’re making a difference, one donation at a time.


Volunteer
Mission Thrift Store thrives thanks to the dedication of incredible volunteers who generously give their time and talents to support those in need, both in our local community and around the world.
Whether you have a few hours to spare each week or want to get more involved, there’s a volunteer role that’s just right for you. From sorting donations to helping customers, every bit of help makes a meaningful impact. You decide how you’d like to serve and how often.
Every dollar has a mission...

Community Impact
Your donations empower lives in the local community, and in communities around the world. They also reduce waste by giving items a new life. Mission Thrift Stores work with various local agencies to provide donated items to people in need in their own community.

Global Impact
We convert donated goods into cash, and the net proceeds of all sales are sent to our joint ministry with Bible League Canada to fund international programs in over 40 countries worldwide.

Waste Diversion
Our environment needs our care. Mission Thrift Stores help reduce landfill waste by promoting the stewardship principles of reduce, reuse and recycle. In 2019, an estimated 23,000,000 pounds were diverted from local landfills. That’s just over one pound for every dollar sold!
