Three Months of Community at Centennial
Three months in at our Centennial location - and it still feels like a gift.
Three times the size. More storage. A dedicated volunteer workspace. Room to breathe and serve in ways we simply couldn't before.
What makes it even more meaningful is who made it possible. This week I had the privilege of presenting to the Centennial Leadership Council - the very people who had the vision to partner with The Store and believe something like this could happen.
I got to say thank you. And I got to invite them deeper.
With over 200 volunteer opportunities every single week at this location, there's a real role for anyone who wants to be part of something that's working. Volunteers don't just help us run - they are the mission in motion.
Grateful for leaders who saw what could be, and for neighbors who show up every week to make it real.
Three months after opening our Centennial location, the impact is already deeply felt. With expanded space, increased storage, and dedicated volunteer areas, The Store is able to serve more neighbors than ever before.
