A local non-profit is working to spark the economy and help those in need at the same time.
Neighborhood Thrift is opening a new bigger location in Fresno's Tower District.
The new store will offer local residents jobs and job training. The idea is to provide jobs and an economic engine to help the entire neighborhood succeed.
Tim Goetz, Executive Pastor of the Well Community Church said, “We would love to continue to hire people from this neighborhood. We currently employ 13 people from this area and we haven't even opened this store yet.”
The new store is located at 353 Olive Avenue, south of the Tower Theatre in Fresno's Tower District.
