CHICAGO (CBS) — Community Threads, a thrift shop in Arlington Heights, opened for a one-day donation drop-off. The staff had no idea it would be such a success. Cars were wrapped around the strip mall to donate.
Community Threads is one of eight thrift shops operating under the Home of the Sparrow, which assists homeless women and children. With the shelter in place order, the thrift stores initially shutdown and left a huge gap in sales revenue.
