St. Margaret's House Resident Council Thrift Shop

St. Margaret's House is a non-profit organization operating under the US Department of Housing and Urban Development section 202/8 program. The 202/8 program provides housing to low-income elderly and disabled persons. There are 249 apartments at SMH, housing approximately 300 people. SMH does not offer any medical or social services; however it does provide some programs and classes for the residents' use and enjoyment. The Resident Council oversees the management of the Thrift Shop. Demographically, the residents are predominately Asian/Chinese. Volunteers who are fluent in mandarin/cantonese are always especially welcome. Most of the customers in the thrift shop come from the general public, so English is the primary language there.
