CASTAWAY KIDS THRIFT STORE
Where shopping makes a difference!
Our Thrift Store plays a vital role in making our mission possible. Thanks to generous donations and volunteer support, the store helps fund many of our educational and community programs throughout San Carlos.
Because Castaway Kids is a mostly volunteer-run organization, proceeds from the Thrift Store are used to cover essential operating expenses and support students who have lost their sponsors. Every donation and every purchase directly impacts local children and families.
Donate
We gratefully accept clothing, household items, sporting goods, jewelry, furniture, boats, RVs, almost anything in good, usable condition.
Donation Hours
• Wednesdays: Volunteers are working inside the store and donations are accepted.
• Thursdays & Saturdays
If you are returning to San Carlos soon, consider bringing a bag of donations with you, every item makes a difference!

Our shelves are restocked regularly with donations received all year long. You never know what you’ll find, great bargains for a great cause.
