Forget-Me-Not Thrift Store -- Resale with a Purpose This month on IMPACT! December 27, 1pm-2pm

Submitted by WHFR-PD on Tue, 12/27/2011 - 2:58pm

Each month IMPACT! introduces you to individuals and groups making a positive difference in the community. This month's special guests are Kim & Stephanie Gross from the Forget-Me-Not Thrift Store in Lincoln Park.

What makes this store so special, is the 501c status. All profits go to suicide-prevention entities.

Within two years, Kim lost a 21-year-old nephew and 26-year-old daughter-in-law to suicide. Kim's daughter Stephanie was especially close to her cousin.

Learn about the store, some pretty unique contents, and how it works as a drop-in center for first-time and regular visitors.

Originally broadcast Tuesday, December 27, the show is available anytime as a podcast through the WHFR.FM website.

For more information about the store, call 313-388-5000, email Kim at: Kimgross@forgetmenotthriftstore.com, or visit the wesite at: forgetmenotthriftstore.com
