City Mission Of The Evangelical Churches Of Erie Pa

Social Enterprise services include two Thrifty Shopper thrift stores and a large Donation Center. Donated clothing and household items are received, sorted and delivered to our two thrift stores by our Donation Center as well as a linen baling operation that sells poor condition linens to third-party vendors. Both thrift stores average approximately $54,000 gross sales/month each. The entire Social Enterprise operation provides a combined Contribution Margin of 42%+ surplus funds which support the other programs of the Erie City Mission

Prevention services of the Mission consist of its youth outreach programs. This includes Urban University, an afterschool program for approximately 140 inner-city, at-risk youth during the school year and week-long workshops during the summer. The goal is to develop and equip emerging student leaders through hands-on, career focused courses, intentional mentorship and practical faith application.
