KAWARTHA LAKES-Since reopening a new location at 232 Kent St. W., Unit 4 in Reeds Plaza, the Second Chance Thrift Store has welcomed shoppers and donors from across the Kawartha Lakes. Every purchase and donated item helps provide food, shelter, medical care, and a second chance for animals in need.
To celebrate this milestone and recognize the community that made it possible, the Humane Society of Kawartha Lakes will host a small celebration at the store.
