Mrs. Rockport-Fulton had the chance to drop off donations and a Rockport Pie while visiting the Castaways Thrift Shop. This nonprofit shop has been serving the community since 1972 and is run by the cheerful, committed volunteers.Castaways is a fun place to search for that special book, affordable clothing, gently used toys, furniture, and many other household goods. You can also find some great holiday decorations; the group was getting the Easter baskets organized.
The proceeds of the goods sold at Castaways benefit five area church groups which in turn, make donations to other community organizations benefiting our county overall. In 2009, Castaways gave $225,430 to over 25 organizations.
The Castaway volunteers are a special bunch who benefit our community greatly through their participation at the shop! We appreciate all of you and are so glad you give back to the Coastal Bend and Aransas County through Castaways.
