Lake City Thrift - We are here to helpLake City Thrift began in January 2023 as a way to fund projects to help the homeless. Julie Nuemann, owner, shared a dream with her late brother David to find solutions for homeless veterans. After David’s passing Julie wanted to expand on her brother’s dream and help all of the homeless and hurting in her community and surrounding areas. In December 2021; her friend Laura Halsey, started the thrift store as Laura’s Needful items. In January 2023 Laura gifted the store to her dear friend Julie. That is when the Homelessness Initiative at Lake City Thrift took its roots in Lake City, Michigan.
