TurnStyles thrift stores are a ministry of Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas. Items are deeply discounted to save shoppers money, so they can afford other necessary items. Best of all, store proceeds help support the programs and services of our neighbors in need.
We have a Turnstyles Donation Bin on the north side of our property near the school building as you walk towards the church. If you are planning to donate any clothes or shoes please consider donating it to Turnstyles.
