The Arc of St. Charles, is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to provide services to people with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities and Special Needs in the Region. The ARC owns two thrift stores in the area, The Cajun Village Thrift Store in Lakewood and A Mardi Gras based thrift store in Norco by the name of Throw Me Something Mister. The ARC does a really good job in helping families with loved ones with special needs. They will reach out and help the child or person learn as their parent/caregiver is busy or give them a job that they are capable of doing in order to earn money.

Donations are needed now more than ever! These workers get so many benefits from working here and your donations could help them tremendously. Send donations to either stores or reach them at https://www.arcofstcharles.com/donate .
