Veteran’s Thrift owners, Bucks County entrepreneurs, Dr. Peter Collipp and U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Andrew Sloan, with their core values of ethics, integrity and stewardship, offer a superb selection of reasonably priced, quality merchandise that includes gently used necessities of clothing and accessories for men, women and children, household goods, books, movies, music and electronics, and affordably priced furniture in a clean environment, perfect for anyone on a budget.
The proceeds benefit our veterans by providing them with aid and assistance. The brave men and women who have valiantly sacrificed so much of themselves on behalf of this great country deserve to be respected, recognized, and honored for their dedication.

Veteran’s Thrift aspires to serve and is designed to exceed expectations providing a hand up, not just a hand out, to our local veterans and community. It’s about accountability.
The owners willingly accept both new and used high-end, high quality donations from the public for resale. Peter and Andrew have both been blessed with much and have much to give back, but they are continually in need of donations and contributions to keep their mission going strong.
“Thank you for without your help we wouldn’t be able to help the veterans and families in need!”

Sponsors for this FREE TOY GIVEAWAY event include Penn Community Bank, committed to helping local residents, businesses and nonprofits, taking an active role in contributing to the overall prosperity of our communities, and the Banks Law Group, a dedicated group of professionals proud to represent veterans and their families in disability claims and benefits.
“We are blessed by the community in general!”

All veterans can receive free meat, free clothing, and free furniture at Veteran’s Thrift seven days a week. Premium ham steaks and sausage patties are donated by the Clemens Food Group, a sixth-generation family-owned business founded in Hatfield.
Furthermore, a voucher program is organized by veteran E-4 Rodney D. Wyatt, a retired U.S. Marine Corps and U.S. Army veteran and veteran representative who is the CEO of the nonprofit Salute2Service.

He founded Salute2Service in 2013 with his passionate effort to bridge the gap between the limited veteran services that the state provided and the need he saw in his community.
“Veterans need advocates,” he said.
