Favarh Thrift Shop

Our Story

Back when Favarh was founded in 1958 to support children with intellectual disabilities, one of the first fundraising endeavors was to open a Thrift Shop, with all the proceeds going to fund programs and services for individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities. We are proud to say that this same Thrift Shop continues to this very day. The location may have changed, but the purpose and mission has not.

The Favarh Thrift Shop is located at 250 Albany Turnpike (Rt. 44) in Canton and is entirely run by generous volunteers who donate their time to ensure the Thrift Shop is welcoming and operating efficiently.

What's Inside

You will find a wonderful assortment of men's and women's clothing, shoes, accessories, books, music, games, housewares, jewelry, giftware, artwork, small furniture, collectibles, antiques, china, stemware, small appliances, and so much more. See a few select photos below.
