Hospice Care Thrift Store News

Hospice Care Corp.'s thrift store on Fairmont's Market Street has been a major success, helping to generate funds for the nonprofit organization's efforts in the community. Here is a nice write up from Katie Wilson at the Times West Virginian, describing some exciting news regarding the store:

Hospice Care Corp. is finding new ways to enhance patient care.

Several years ago, the nonprofit group opened a thrift store on the Friendly City’s Market Street. Since that time, the store has become the flagship of the group’s thrift store operations, said Cynthia Woodyard, the group’s vice president of public affairs and access.


“Fairmont has been the jewel of our thrift stores and we’ve been looking for an opportunity to expand,” Woodyard said. “The opportunity presented itself, so we’re moving right up the street.”


At this time, the former store is closed for the move. Woodyard said she hopes the new store will be open by the end of the month.


Our hope is that the new location will allow even more shoppers to find and enjoy the store, which will in turn help our patients and their families. We can't wait to see you there!
