S.H.A.R.E. Society is a non-profit thrift store that has been part of the Kelowna community since 1977. It supports various programs, including community assistance, work experience, and volunteer engagement. All profits go back into local initiatives that help individuals and families in need, including the Community Assistance Program and Adopt-a-Family Hamper Program.

S.H.A.R.E. Society isn't just a place to shop for second-hand treasures; it’s a community-driven hub that gives back in a big way. Since its founding, it has worked hard to support the less fortunate through a variety of programs. One of its most impactful offerings is the Community Assistance Program (CAP), which provides essential items like clothing and kitchen supplies to individuals and families facing financial struggles. It’s a unique store where your purchase directly supports these initiatives.

But it's not just about the customers—volunteers play a key role in S.H.A.R.E.'s success. The store provides them with opportunities to gain valuable skills, learn about retail, and even take part in work exchange programs, where they can shop for goods in exchange for their time. With initiatives like the Adopt-a-Family Hamper Program, S.H.A.R.E. actively works to ease the financial burdens of local families, particularly around the holidays.

Membership at S.H.A.R.E. is also available for just $2 a year, giving members access to special sales. If you stop by, you can find everything from gently used clothing to household goods at affordable prices, all while knowing your purchases are helping support essential community programs. S.H.A.R.E. is a true example of how a thrift store can be more than just a place to find a bargain—it’s a space that fosters community support and growth.
