OUR STORY
The Cancer Thrift Store of Beaufort is a Non Profit 501(c) 3 organization whose mission is to support the local community, especially those affected by cancer.
Our goal is to become the leading organization to provide education, financial support, and community awareness programs in Beaufort and the surrounding areas. We provide financial assistance with things such as patient medical costs, housing costs, and transportation to and from treatment centers. We are planning programs that educate patients, their families, and also the community about cancer. The Cancer Thrift Store of Beaufort is quickly becoming a place for cancer survivors and people who have lost loved ones to cancer to gather and draw strength by sharing their stories with one another.
Often times, programs think of the patient, but forget about the people who love and care for the patient. We make family, friends, and community members who support cancer patients a priority in our programs. We offer awareness programs so that people who want to help can learn how to help. We guide families to resources that help explain the disease to children who are directly and indirectly affected by cancer.
Volunteers Make all the Difference
The Cancer Thrift Store of Beaufort is run by community leaders who are dedicated to supporting our neighbors who are affected by cancer. Our volunteers care about the community and give a great deal of time to help achieve our mission.
Many of our volunteers have been touched by cancer in some way. Some have battled the disease personally, others have lost loved ones to the disease. They are passionate about supporting the community, and helping find a cure for cancer. They openly share their stories with those who come to shop or donate and often end up making positive connections with people who would otherwise be strangers. Volunteering with The Cancer Thrift Store of Beaufort is a great way to "give back" and become fulfilled in your own life.
