A new thrift shop helps Portlanders living with disabilities

Portland’s newest thrift shop opened quietly this past weekend at 8304 SE Stark Street.

The Arc Thrift Store, run by The Arc of Multnomah-Clackamas, is accepting donations and selling some of the hottest used clothing and items Portland has to offer.

All proceeds from the Arc Thrift Store go towards those living with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
