International Rescue Committee (IRC)

Thrift Shop Thrives

IRC volunteer Linda Burns (above) has helped turn the IRC resettlement thrift shop into a thriving “business.” On the second day of its official opening, the shop welcomed dozens of refugees who found much-needed winter clothing and household goods. Above, Burns helps refugee clients Dal Rai (left) and Hem Lal Monger at the store. To donate clothing or other items, email Charlottesville@rescue.org or call 434-979-7772 ext. 114.
