Graceland Thrift Store | Print |

grandopenflyerpromo1Graceland Thrift Store opened in 1984, and was named after “Mama Grace” Duke, who had recently retired from being a house parent and began this ministry as a “yard sale” to raise money for The Children's Village.  

Graceland offers a huge variety of quality used items at bargain prices in a friendly atmosphere. And, whether you shop or donate, you are helping the children at Christian City!  Since all profits go towards the educational needs of abused, abandoned, and neglected children who come to The Children's Village, shoppers enjoy great value AND the satisfaction of helping kids!  

In addition to our large inventory of quality pre-owned items, we also have a large new clothes section.  We constantly price shop our competitors to make sure we are the most reasonable and inexpensive store of our kind.  Come see what we mean - you won't be disappointed!
