Thank You for Supporting our Hospice Thrift Store - Post Falls! 💙 🛒

For more than 37 years, the Hospice Thrift Store has been a cherished part of our local community. Together, we’ve created something truly meaningful: a store that not only offered great treasures but also helped fund compassionate end-of-life care, grief support, and community education through Hospice of North Idaho.

We want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to our amazing staff, devoted volunteers, loyal shoppers, generous donors, and the entire community for your unwavering support. Your dedication has allowed us to carry forward our mission of care and compassion for decades, and we couldn’t have done it without you.

As we prepare to close this chapter, we invite you to visit us for our final day open tomorrow, on Friday, November 8th, open 9 am - 6 pm. Please stop by for major discounts, store fixtures, hangers, and many free items as we clear out our space one last time.

While this location is closing, we remain hopeful for a future space where the Hospice Thrift Store can continue its legacy of giving and community support.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for 37 wonderful years! 🕊️

This week, we join in celebrating Spiritual Care Week, honoring the invaluable work of spiritual caregivers who provide emotional and spiritual support across hospitals, hospices, and other care settings.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of this national observance, symbolized by the ruby—a stone representing protection, healing, and inner light. ❤️

We’re proud to recognize our own spiritual care team, Rev. Jennifer H., MS, Spiritual Care Coordinator, and Tony M., Spiritual Care Chaplain, for their compassionate and holistic approach to care.

Sonja, our Director of Social Services shares:

“Jennifer and Tony, you both set the standard high when it comes to providing intentional and holistic patient care. I am grateful to be celebrating with you this week.”

Thank you, Jennifer and Tony, for the light and comfort you bring to our patients, families, and community every day.
