ORGANIZATION: Home of the Sparrow, Inc

New year, new you and new ways to give back to your community!

Add joining the volunteer team at Community Threads to your list of resolutions! Community Threads began as a response to the needs of people in our community. This store is a source of funds to a network of christian charities that engage with the problems related to poverty. Some feed and clothe the homeless, shelter struggling families and provide a safe place for victims of abuse. Some bring education to children that may be denied it otherwise. Others provide recovery programs for addictions and some provide leadership training. It is our goal at Community Threads to provide our customers with quality merchandise at low prices and turn store profits into grants that serve these purposes.

We started off in a modest store in Buffalo Grove and have grown into our new location in Arlington Heights. Over our first five years in business, we have not only gotten larger but have also been able to give away over $1,000,000.00 dollars to worthy causes. Help us as we look to give away much more in the future!
