The Family Outfitters Thrift Store and
Families in Transition Connection


Families in Transition sign

In November of 2002, with generous funding provided by the Great Bay Foundation, Families in Transition officially expanded into the area of social entrepreneurship with the opening of Family Outfitters Thrift Store. In addition, Family Outfitters Thrift Store serves as an employment & training program for Families in Transition participants and alumni who have the opportunity to gain retail expertise at all levels. In addition to retail experience, numerous classes are offered through the Employment & Training Program, including a comprehensive computer training program.

The thrift store is a revenue stream for Families in Transition - 100% of store profits are used to support ongoing programs and services of the agency. This means that virtually every purchase or donation that you make can have a direct impact on homeless families in your community. In addition, participants of Families in Transition are given vouchers to the store upon entering the Families in Transition program so that they can purchase basic living necessities.

Drives and Volunteering

If you prefer to donate directly to Families in Transition, please consider coordinating a drive for new items that would go directly to participants, such as diapers & wipes, toiletries, paper products, and laundry items.

Volunteers are needed on a continuous basis to help sort donations. For more information about giving and volunteer opportunities, please contact Stephanie Tallini, Coordinator of Volunteers & Donations at (603) 641-6691, ext 332 or stallini@fitnh.org
