PARTNER

Everyone deserves to show up in the world with confidence and dignity. Encore was created to make that possible.

Encore is a new kind of free store—built with dignity, care, and community in mind. Encore provides quality clothing and household essentials at no cost to those we serve. But this isn’t charity. It’s community. It’s what happens when people give with heart, receive with dignity, and believe that we all belong. Here, secondhand doesn’t mean second-best. Here, generosity gets another round of applause.

Here, everyone deserves an encore.

BELONG.

A previously unused and empty space at Harmony Center has become something extraordinary.

Together, we’ve transformed it into Encore—a boutique-style free store—and we’re welcoming volunteers to help sort donations, stock the shelves, and serve our community.

Volunteer now to help create a dignified, no-cost shopping experience for the people we serve. Click the button below to sign up!
