Thrift for a cause
20 Balsam Street, Unit 6, Collingwood ON
Open Tues - Sat
10 am - 5 pm
We’re a community-powered thrift store turning preloved clothing into second chances for women & children.
What We Do
Common Thread is a nonprofit thrift store supporting My Friend’s House, our local shelter for women and children. We collect, curate, and upcycle secondhand clothing to raise funds, provide community care, and offer second chances — one outfit at a time.
How to Get Involved
Donate Clothing: We accept gently used clothing and accessories for women, men and kids. Clothing must be clean and in excellent condition (no rips or stains). Please bring your donations to our receiving door at the back of our building. Donations are accepted Tues-Thurs. Ring our doorbell and one of our friendly volunteers will assist you. *
Volunteer With Us: Help us sort, style, or staff the store — or lend a hand at events. We welcome volunteers ages 14+. Volunteer shifts are 2.5 hrs weekly, bi-weekly or occasionally! We use a volunteer scheduling app
Shop With Us: At Common Thread you can expect one of a kind fashion finds and quality brand name clothing and accessories. We uphold high quality resale standards and will have new items arriving daily so visit us often!
Your support makes real impact here.
