Helping themselves to more space Thrift store, which helps fund nonprofit, moving to Sterling, bigger building BY KATHLEEN A. SCHULTZ
STERLING – It’s stage 3 for Stage Two Resale shop. The nonprofit Rock Falls thrift store at 225 First Ave., which raised money for the now-defunct Sterling Christian School in Galt, was given to Self Help Enterprises in February 2013. Self Help provides employment training and residential support for adults with disabilities. The building Stage Two is in was always cramped, and became even more so as donations of items rose in the wake of its new mission. Parking, too, has been an issue. The hope always has been to move to larger accommodations. That hope is being realized: The store is moving across the river to a former Video Village store at 205 St. Mary’s St., just south of Kroger’s. That move will triple Stage Two’s space, said Carla Haubrich, Self Help’s executive director. The building, which once was a grocery store called People’s Market, also has a large parking lot.

Its first day in the new spot will be June 2. Hours will remain the same: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Self Help took over the thrift store in part to have a revenue stream that didn’t flow from the state, Haubrich said at the time. Since then, the store has generated more than $10,000, she said, and more space means Stage Two will be able to take in more and larger items. “I think a lot of times, people just didn’t donate because they knew we didn’t have the space,� Haubrich said. It also means the nonprofit will be able to expand its recycling program – which now focuses on electronics, paper, cardboard and aluminum – to include textiles, Haubrich said. Best of all, though, because of the additional space, and because it’s closer to Self Help headquarters at 2300 W. LeFevre, the store will become another place to train clients, who will be paid to help sort, process and price donations, she said. Longtime co-managers Agnes Povilaitis and Emily Habben, Stage Two’s only paid employees, also will
