The mission of the Thrift Shop is to award scholarships to OSU and Linn-Benton students and to award community grants to Benton County 501(c)(3) organizations.
The Corvallis Community Thrift Shop’s history began with the OSU Folk Club, which was established as a social and service club on October 29, 1908 by OSU faculty women and faculty wives.
The Thrift Shop was established by the Folk Club in 1949 to give profits from sales to community organizations. Learn more about our history, what we’re doing for our community and how you can help!
Whether you are new to Corvallis, or are a long time resident, volunteering at the Corvallis Community Thrift Shop is a great way to meet other civic minded people. By volunteering, you will be giving back to your community, make new friends, and have the flexibility to volunteer as your schedule allows. We’d love to have you join us in our mission of providing scholarships to students and funding grants for the community.
The flexible hours also provide an excellent opportunity for students who are interested in obtaining hours for community service. Young people are very welcome!
This quilt was entirely made out of fabric donated and purchased at the Corvallis Community Thrift Shop. It exemplifies our new logo which indicates the full circle of donations giving back to our community in beautiful ways beyond providing scholarships and grants!
We are open Wednesdays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. All items for sale in the store have been donated. No consignments are being accepted.
The Corvallis Community Thrift Shop will be closed the Friday after Thanksgiving, but will be open Saturday, the 30th of November. For the Christmas holidays, our last day to be open is Saturday, the 21st. The shop will remain closed until Saturday, January 4th.
Donations of clean, seasonal, good repair items are accepted on Mondays 9 – 12, Wednesdays 10 – 4, Thursdays 9 – 12 and Saturdays 10 – 4, or by appointment. Items can be brought to the door on the Jackson Street side of the Shop. Please see the list of Items Never Accepted so you do not bring items we cannot take.
As always, thank you for your ongoing support of the Corvallis Community Thrift Shop. We are excited to continue our 70+ year tradition of funding scholarships for high school students in Benton County who will attend OSU and LBCC. Providing grants to local non-profit organizations is another philanthropic endeavor of the shop.
