Charities
Shop to support local charities!
We are proud to have partnered with outstanding, local non-profits committed to helping provide Oklahomans with their needed services. Your donations of usable clothing, shoes, jewelry, books, toys, kitchenware, knick-knacks, electrical appliances, furniture, and other household items are greatly appreciated.
You are providing monthly revenue that allows other charities to focus less on “fundraising” and more on the people in our community.
Vizavance
Vizavance, formerly Prevent Blindness Oklahoma, has served Oklahoma children since 1965. It is the only nonprofit organization in all 77 counties of Oklahoma dedicated to advancing children’s education through vision.
Each school year, Vizavance’s state-certified screeners visit more than 1,300 schools and childcare centers, screen over 350,000 children, and refer about 45,000 of them to local eye doctors for a full exam.
Vizavance receives no federal, state or United Way funding. It relies on the public, local businesses, foundations — and thrift store sales like yours at Bargain Thrift.

Oklahoma Foundation for the Disabled
Since 1960, the Oklahoma Foundation for the Disabled (OKFD) has served adults with disabilities in central Oklahoma. Its Adult Day Program, open weekdays from 8 AM to 4 PM, offers education, fitness, arts and crafts, field trips and social events in a safe, caring setting, with daily bus service across Oklahoma County and neighboring counties.
OKFD’s Vocational Program trains adults with intellectual disabilities for jobs in the community. Working alongside job coaches, participants pick up donated household items from homes and businesses across the OKC area. Those items are sold here at Bargain Thrift.
