This week, the Salvation Army Thrift Store expands its presence in Saskatoon with the opening of its second location in a freestanding unit at 503 Nelson Rd in the University Heights Suburban Centre. Its largest location, the 13,500 square foot Saskatoon store is offering a wide variety of affordable items for individuals and families across the community. Conveniently located near residential neighbourhoods and local businesses, the new store offers ample parking, and expands access to budget‑friendly, sustainable shopping while supporting Salvation Army programs and services. “We’re excited to open our doors in Saskatoon South and welcome even more members of the community to shop and donate,” says Ted Troughton, Managing Director of The Salvation Army Thrift Store. “Donations are at the heart of what we do, and the generosity of the community plays a vital role in helping us support individuals and families in need.” The Salvation Army Thrift Store is a non-profit organization and the only national division of The Salvation Army. Through its 98 Thrift Stores across Canada, the organization offers savings on new and gently used clothing, textiles, and household items while generating funds to support local Salvation Army programs, services, and emergency relief efforts.
