J. Jill to Host Clothing Drive to Benefit The Village

September 23, 2021

The Second Chance Shop in Glastonbury is once again teaming up with its charity partner J.Jill to provide an opportunity for the community to support The Village for Families & Children.

J.Jill, a women’s clothing store in Somerset Square at 140 Glastonbury Boulevard, Glastonbury, will be accepting donations of new or high-quality, gently-used clothing from September 30 through October 6, during their open hours. As a thank you, those who donate will receive a J.Jill coupon for $10 off one full-priced item valued at $40 or more.

The donated clothing will be sold at the Second Chance Shop that is run and managed by dedicated volunteers.  It is located at 730 Hebron Avenue, Glastonbury.  Sales proceeds will benefit women and their families receiving various services at The Village for Families & Children.

For more than half a century, the Shop has supported The Village’s programs that build a community of strong, healthy families who protect and nurture children – by selling new and high-quality, gently-used clothing, accessories, antiques, toys and household items.

Glastonbury Second Chance Shop is open Thursday and Friday from 11:00 am – 3:00 pm and Saturday from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm.
