After months of research and strategic planning, MUST Ministries has opened a 4,600-sq.-ft. thrift store to help fund the organization’s commitment to helping area residents move from poverty to stability. Clients will now have the option to purchase items in addition to the free vouchers they receive, giving them a feeling of parity and not just charity.

This concept is very exciting on many levels. It gives clients the dignity of shopping in a nice store; donors an opportunity to make a difference by what they give to the store; and the public a chance to shop and see the great work MUST is doing, as well as help sustain programs with the proceeds.

Find a deal. Help someone in need. The MUST Ministries Marketplace is going to run a deal for all of their wonderful customers for the month of March. Everything will be buy one get one of lesser value FREE (excluding furniture). MUST Marketplace is located at 1407 Cobb Parkway North, Marietta 30062. The store is open Mondays, 9-2; Tuesdays-Fridays, 9-5; and Saturdays 10-6. Don’t miss it! More info: 770-790-3900.
