🌟 A Gentle Reminder From Portage Resale Shop Ministries 🌟
We are so grateful for every donation that helps us feed the hungry, clothe the naked, and take in the stranger.
Your generosity keeps this ministry moving — and we couldn’t do it without you.
To keep our volunteers safe and our shop running smoothly, we kindly ask:
📦 Donation Limit: 3–4 Bags or Boxes Per Drop‑Off
This applies both during business hours and at our after‑hours donation shed.
Lately, we’ve had several truckloads dropped off overnight, and our small volunteer team simply can’t keep up when that happens. We are working as fast as we can — truly — but we need your help.
🚫 Please Do NOT Leave Items on the Porch or Driveway
Anything left outside gets damaged by weather, animals, or traffic, and we cannot use it to help families in need.
💛 Our Volunteers Are Doing Their Best
Every bag you donate is sorted, cleaned, priced, and placed by caring hands who give their time to serve our community.
Thank you for understanding, for respecting our limits, and for continuing to support the mission of Portage Resale Shop Ministries.
Together, we make a difference in Portage and beyond.

We are working on repainting the exterior of our building. As such, our sign letters have been taken down. Fear not! We are not going anywhere, we just wanted to paint behind them a few coats.

1960 Mirrocraft aluminum boat project. Hull is solid, wood floors...ehhh. Comes with 2 seats. Has dashboard but no controls. No motor, no tank. Has bilge pump, no idea if it works. Has not been in the water in 8 years, but floated fine then. Comes with a Steel trailer with new LED lights. Tires hold air. No fenders. 1 7/8 ball. Trailer has an Indiana Assembled title. Boat comes with copy of registration, too old to title. Value is in the trailer and title. Fundraising boat. This was donated to a non-profit for the purpose of raising funds for a project. Donate your unused vehicle today.

We so appreciate Fajita Grill! On their busiest day of the year they decided to bless our volunteers with a taco bar ! Thank you so much.

🚤 Well… this is a fun one!
We just had a Mirrocraft boat and trailer (with title!) donated to our Pave the Way Project — and honestly, it’s a pretty cool little project piece. It’ll be for sale soon, so keep an eye out if you’ve been wanting something to tinker with or take out on the water.

Every donation like this helps us keep doing what we do:
feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, and taking in the stranger.

If you’ve got a vehicle you’re not using — must have title — you can turn it into real impact for families right here in Portage.

💙 Donate your vehicle today and help us Pave the Way.
