The Thrift Store at 1029 Commercial Drive in Vancouver
There is a thrift store at the former location of My Sister’s Closet – Social Enterprise of Battered Women’s Support Services 1029 Commercial Drive in Vancouver.
My Sister’s Closet shoppers and donors have contacted us wondering if we are affiliated with this store. We are aware that there is some confusion because this store has indicated they are working with women. Battered Women’s Support Services is not affiliated with this store and we are unaware of any women’s programs being supported through this store.
For all who are looking for us and wish to continue supporting My Sister’s Closet as a social enterprise of Battered Women’s Support Services please see us at our Yaletown location at 1092 Seymour Street at Helmcken in Vancouver.
My Sister’s Closet and You!
In our effort to support zero waste and eco fashion, we are solid members of the thrift movement, where women, men and children have access to beautiful new and thrift clothing.
Revenue generated from sales of clothing go into funding violence prevention and intervention services operated by Battered Women’s Support Services supporting over 8,000 women every year.
Our decision to free ourselves from the whims of government drove us to be in business to end violence against women.
Shopping and donating to My Sister’s Closet – Social Enterprise of Battered Women’s Support Services means you are directly assisting women and children who are living with violence to find safety:
