We are a non-profit resale shop serving all of Fayette County.  We are run by a coalition of seven local churches (Crosspoint Community Church, First Presbyterian Church, New Life Methodist Church, Mt. Calvary Lutheran Church, Sacred Heart Catholic Church, St. James Episcopal Church, St. Paul Lutheran Church, and Shared Lutheran Ministries) representing different denominations.  The majority of the work is performed by unpaid volunteers from the member churches, as well as the community at large.  These churches receive no monies or in-kind donations from Second Chance for the service hours their parishioners donate. 

Second Chance accepts donations of clothing, shoes, household goods, furniture, etc., in good, working, usable condition from the public, and resells items at very low prices in order to benefit the underprivileged members of our community.  Profits from the sale of these items  are distributed to local charities, which have applied for funding and been selected by the Second Chance Emporium's Board of Directors.
