What a wonderful store with a powerful mission! They’ve got a $5 rack of clothing outside and all sorts of lovely things inside like furniture, clothes, jewelry, etc… they’re donation based so your purchase is for a very good cause. And the workers in there are great!

Great store, amazing finds, supporting an all women business is a win for me! Plus they had what I was looking for for my Christmas shopping list! It’s a circular economy- less waste in our landfill, affordable items for my wallet, repurposed items going to a good home and supporting single moms all while keeping our dollars in Oakland.
Walked past this store one day and I just KNEW I had to go in, and boy am I glad I did. I bought a really cool art piece made by a local artist and some pre-loved clothing :) Such an awesome store with beautiful energy. Love their mission, love their values. TAKE MY MONEY!
