Shop With a Purpose at Arc’s Value Village
Arc’s Value Village Thrift Stores and Donation Centers are nonprofit thrift stores in Minnesota where you can shop and donate while supporting disability services across the state through The Arc Minnesota. When you shop secondhand or donate at our twin cities thrift stores, you support programs for people with disabilities
Arc’s Value Village Thrift Stores and Donation Centers generate significant funding for The Arc Minnesota’s programs and services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Founded in 1982, the three stores—located in Bloomington, New Hope, and Richfield.—sell donated items in-store and on eBay, and also accept vehicle donations.
When you shop, donate, or volunteer at Arc’s Value Village, you are helping us work toward our goal—a future where people with disabilities live a life they choose with hope, confidence, and belonging.

Volunteer
It’s easy and fun to volunteer at Arc’s Value Village!
Hundreds of people volunteer at Arc’s Value Village stores every year. Each volunteer is essential to our success and contributes to our mission. Volunteers are also critical to store operations, helping keep costs low to generate maximum return and funding for The Arc Minnesota’s programs.
Help the Arc’s Value Village crew sort, organize and get items ready for sale. You’ll be unpacking donations; hanging and tagging clothes; putting price stickers on books, dishes and other hard goods; testing small appliances to make sure they work, and more.

Thrifting promotes environmental sustainability by lightening your impact as a consumer. Environmental change disproportionately affects people with disabilities. By purchasing items that already exist, you’re giving them a new life instead of sending them to a landfill, and making change in our communities.
