Shop SVdP Stores for great bargains on clothing, shoes, books, furniture and housewares! Our selection changes daily in every store. Our stores provide an economical alternative to typical mall and retail stores for cost-conscious shoppers. If you enjoy bargain shopping, you should visit a St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store today!

When you shop at any of our 10 SVdPthrift stores, you support our organizations programs like the Family Support Centers, Education and Training, Food Distribution Program, Temporary Housing  and you provide funds which subsidizes rent and utility payments for clients.

The 10 SVdP Thrift Stores in Atlanta offer a low-cost, high quality shopping experience for bargain shoppers, as well as those with limited means.  The stores are staffed by volunteers who support the mission of helping those in need.   Each of the stores honors vouchers, allowing clients to get free clothing, house wares, and furniture.  Funds raised through the stores stay in the local community allowing the sponsoring Conference  to pay rent, utilities, and buy food for clients who come to them for help.
