About Flying Pig Thrift

Location:

722 Snelling Ave N, St Paul, MN 55104, US

Mission Statement

Flying Pig Thrift exists to honor the founder's sister Heather Valdez by providing a unique, energizing and downright fun nonprofit thrift store where shoppers can find thrifty treasures while benefiting local nonprofits.

Description

Flying Pig Thrift celebrated its 4th "Piggiversary" in July 2023. The store is a nonprofit in the Midway-Hamline neighborhood of St Paul. The store sells only items that have been donated. This helps keep overhead costs as low as possible. Another way we work on keep overhead costs low is by having only 2 paid part time employees and using Volunteers to staff the store. We would love to have you join us! Volunteers usually sign up for one 4- hour shift per week, and can assist with all aspects of daily store operations, from the cash register, to sorting and stocking donations, to setting up window and merchandise displays -- Volunteers do it all at Flying Pig Thrift! Please call or stop by the store and check us out.
