Missouri Council Of The Blind / New Image Thrift Store
Products | About Us | Donations | Links | Store Locations
We carry a
full line of men's clothing, including hats, shoes, and slacks to ties, even
those hard to find items. We carry it all, and at prices no one can come close
to.
Some thing's you just can't find at the mall; that's why we go
to great length's to find some of the best thrift
clothing and accessories in Missouri.
We carry every thing for your little ones, from sneakers to gloves,
blue jeans to sweatshirts. Our selection of children's clothing is just what
you have been looking for at a fraction of the cost.
Kitchen
appliances are the backbone to a great meal, and when that blender or toaster
breaks you need something fast and inexpensive. At NEW IMAGE Thrift Stores we
test all of our kitchenware to insure quality, so that you get a great deal
every time.
We also have
a wide array of household goods that are great for finding that missing piece,
or that long lost lampshade that you just cant
find anywhere.
Our Furniture
at New Image Thrift Store ranges from couches to beanbag chairs, or dining room
tables to lamps. So if that old dining room table needs to hit the scrap heap
we can help.
What does the
Missouri Council of the Blind do with the money it gets from the thrift store?
1. It helps
cover the cost of a summer camp. This is where the blind get to do lots of
things they normally would not get to do, i.e. singing around the camp fire,
canoe riding, miniature golf, trail walking, hiking, playing different card
games, true fellowship with fellow blind people, communion with nature.
2. They
sponsor a shorter fall camp doing the same things.
3. They use
the money for scholarships to help allow; visually impaired people continue
their education.
4. They
provide money for adaptive technology.
5. They
provide information on where to turn. How to go about getting
help. Helping solve problems that a person maybe experiencing.
6. They have
a small health benefit available when the member is hospitalized.
7. They use
it to help promote public awareness, let people know what it is like to be
blind and what may be done to help prevent blindness.
8. They help
in providing information on employment and legislation issues.
9. They have
the Missouri Chronicle magazine, available upon request, which lets the blind
know what, is happening on different issues that effect the blind and what the local affiliates are
doing.
