Community Treasures is a 501(c)3 public charity thrift shop (dba CT Recycling) and known as “CT”.  CT provides items free of charge to nonprofit and service organizations, as well as some occasional services for organizations and individuals, to the tune of about $2,000 a month.  In addition, CT provides funds for community programs and projects that support CT’s charitable mission.

In May, CT is proud to announce that it will make contributions of $7,000 toward local programs, including two contributions for Prevention Coalition projects – $1,500 for Voices for Healthy Choices, and $500 for Project Grad Night.  In addition, CT is contributing $3,000 toward roof repairs for the Recovery House, which hosts personal recovery programs.  CT is also contributing $2,000 to student scholarships.

We would like to thank individuals in our community for their generous support, which makes it possible for Community Treasures to give back to local charitable organizations, deserving projects, and worthy students.

Community Treasures is located at 6739 Roche Harbor Road and reuses, repurposes and recycles items donated by our island neighbors. Without your support and the help of our tireless volunteers, it would not be possible for us to succeed. Thank you very much!

You can support the San Juan Update by doing business with our loyal advertisers, and by making a one-time contribution or a recurring donation.
