Accepts clothing and household goods in good condition. Clothing should be clean and sellable, and housewares should be working and free of chips or cracks. The organization routes categories such as books/media, children’s used toys and electronic waste to other organizations rather than accepting them for this thrift shop.

About the Organization & Community Impact

St. Mary Advocates is a 100% volunteer nonprofit that has served the Hoboken community for decades. The organization uses its thrift store to raise funds for health-related charities and scholarships for students pursuing nursing and other health-science careers. It also provides support to local nonprofit organizations and individuals in need. St. Mary Advocates emphasizes keeping high-quality donations local and reports that a large share of its charitable giving remains in Hoboken and New Jersey. Unsold or unsuitable textiles may be redirected through recycling partners so more material stays out of landfills. For estate donors, the thrift store therefore combines affordable reuse, local philanthropy, health education support and environmental benefits in a single volunteer-run program.
