Just finished furnishing my craft room/office with fabulous pieces and fabulous prices. I could shop here every day! I love the programs that are supported by the store as well!
Special Treasures is not just a store, but a workforce development program for youth in foster care in Iredell County. 100% of our proceeds go back into the program. We accept gently used items as tax-deductible donations and sell them at reasonable prices.
We are proud to offer quality items, name brands, and a lovely ambiance. Youth in our program learn a wide array of competencies to prepare them for higher education and/or the workforce. These include marketing, budgeting, fundraising, supervising, software operating (Office & Quickbooks), shipping & receiving, and design.
Additionally, they learn soft skills such as relationship building with the public and colleagues, self-esteem, communication, independence, grammar & vocabulary, and general professionalism. We are always seeking merchandise and monetary donations, volunteers, and customers.
