LOPEZ THRIFT SHOP ANNOUNCES SUSPENSION OF THE 2021 PROJECT GRANT PROGRAM
With great regret the Lopez Thrift Shop Board of Directors announces the suspension of the 2021 Project Grant Program. Last year the shop offered a vastly reduced program funded by previous years’ revenues. This year, after an extended closure and currently operational only six hours a week, our revenues have been cut 80%. The Project Grant Program has been a vital financial resource for many years, benefitting between 25-28 local organizations. While the outlook for opening the shop full time is uncertain, the Board is optimistic we can resume awarding project grants in spring, 2022. We look forward to expanding our community outreach in the months ahead.
