Be the Heart of a Mission-Driven Thrift Store
Rethreads isn’t your typical thrift store. It's a free community resource operated by La Puente to ensure everyone in the San Luis Valley has access to clothing and basic household items—especially in times of crisis. As the Rethreads Manager, you’ll lead this welcoming, judgment-free space with warmth, organization, and compassion.
You’ll work directly with clients, community members, donors, and volunteers. You’ll also collaborate with our sister enterprise, Rainbow’s End, to make sure items flow where they’re most needed.
What You'll Do
- Keep the store organized, clean, and full of useful items
- Build strong relationships with donors and volunteers
- Maintain accurate inventory and client service tracking
- Help people feel seen, respected, and supported
You're a Great Fit If You
- Have excellent people skills and a non-judgmental presence
- Are organized and self-directed—you can run a space on your own
- Have experience in retail or volunteer management (preferred)
- Are bilingual (a plus, but not required)
Why Work With La Puente?
La Puente is a nonprofit that’s been serving the San Luis Valley since 1982. We believe in dignity, empowerment, and compassionate service. You’ll be part of a team that includes shelter, food pantries, youth programming, and street outreach—all rooted in justice and community care.
Bonus Perks
- Flexible daytime hours
- Work that makes a direct difference
- A team that values your leadership
