The Second Chance Thrift Shop and Camano Senior Services Association (CSSA) depend on a dedicated staff of volunteers. The income earned from the sale of goods donated to the Thrift Shop helps support a variety of services and activities for the residents of Camano Island. Volunteers enjoy the opportunity to make a significant difference in their community, to meet new friends, and to have some fun while working at the Thrift Shop.  In return, CSSA strives to provide a safe and welcoming environment for both volunteers and customers.
