Special Announcement:

In order to help tamp down the spread of the CoronaVirus, we have closed our Pick of the Litter thrift store until it is safe to reopen, based on the recommendations of public health authorities. Meantime, you can find advice on the best ways to keep yourself and your neighbors safe at the website of the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention: cdc.gov. Thanks for your understanding, and best wishes for weathering this challenging time.

The flagship of FOLCAS’s fundraising operations is the Pick of the Litter thrift store, opened in July 2009 in a building at the County Fairgrounds in Newport. Thanks to our ever-growing ranks of donors, shoppers, and volunteers, Pick of the Litter has become a thriving success, filled with terrific bargains and fabulous finds. There are new items every day!

One coupon per customer, please!

"Pick of the Litter," established in 2009, is a volunteer operation, except for the store manager. Its success is entirely due to the cadre of hard-working and dedicated community members who give generously of their time and skills.

Volunteers are always needed. Please call the store or stop in and pick up a volunteer application if you’d like to join the fun!

Our volunteer team and the hours they donate to our efforts each month continue to grow, but we can always use more help.  Every net dollar we earn through store sales and donations helps Lincoln County animals.
