The Atlantic Chamber Ambassadors were hosted by the staff and board members of New Hope on Thursday, January 26th, 2023, for a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new Bargain Shoppe location in Atlantic.
New Hope originally began in 1978 with a group of parents that had children with disabilities getting services from organizations throughout the state. The parents decided to open a thrift shop in Carroll to raise money to purchase land that would eventually become a campus for their children to receive the care they needed while being close to home.
Today, New Hope has five Bargain Shoppes in Carroll, C**n Rapids, Perry, Jefferson, and Atlantic. The organization has evolved beyond thrift stores, and now offers day programs and services, residential services, home support, employment services, and are working to add childcare to the long list of services. 100% of the proceeds from the donations and purchases at the New Hope Bargain Shoppe help support New Hopeβs mission of enriching the lives of individuals with disabilities.
The Atlantic store is located in the Hy-Vee Plaza in the building previously known as the Salvation Army. New Hope is open to shoppers on Tuesday-Friday 10AM-7PM and Saturday & Sunday 10AM-5PM. Donation items are accepted Monday β Friday 10AM-5PM and Saturday & Sunday 10AM-4PM.
New Hope Bargain Shoppe is located at 1600 E 7th Street in Atlantic. Their number is 712-250-8310.
