Care & Share Thrift Shoppes announced their 2019 donation to Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) on Wednesday, February 12, 2020 at a special Super Star Breakfast.  Thanks to generous donors, energetic shoppers and enthusiastic volunteers, Care & Share announced they are the first independent, non-profit, thrift store to donate over One Million Dollars to charity in a calendar year. 

Volunteers contribute to the heartbeat of Care & Share!  At this breakfast, we celebrated an elite group we refer to as the “Super Stars”. These 93 special volunteers each donated between 300 - 1,700 hours in 2019, contributing to over 109,000 volunteer hours in 2019.  Care & Share is thankful for the support of all of our volunteers. 

Since 1975, Care & Share has donated over $19 million to MCC (mcc.org)

Care & Share Thrift Shoppes presented a check for $2,581 to Hilltown Police Chief Christopher Engelhart from the proceeds of the recent First Responders Appreciation Night.  In December, Hilltown Police Department will be partnering with Quakertown Police Department to shop with selected children for items to make their holiday season brighter.  

The evening of the “First Responders Event” was unseasonably cold.  We are ecstatic to see such strong support for First Responders which is evident in the amount of money raised.  Thank you for shopping and visiting with the First Responders onsite that evening.
