From vintage denim to funky home goods, Berry Good Buys is Fort Worth’s favorite spot for secondhand finds that make a statement – and make a difference!

Berry Good Buys is a social enterprise of The Archway. Since 1988, 100 percent of the proceeds made from the store drive our programs to keep families safe from abuse.

How it works

Whether you’re donating, shopping, or just browsing, you’re part of something bigger when you shop at Berry Good Buys. It’s thrift that comes full circle.

01

EXPLAINS
COMPLEXITY

Generous community members (like you!) donate gently used clothing, furniture, home goods, and more. Every item has potential – whether it’s a cozy sweater, a vintage bookshelf, or the perfect statement piece.

02

WE SORT WITH PURPOSE

Our team carefully sorts each donation. Items urgently needed by families in our shelters go straight to them. Everything else is prepped, priced, and rolled onto the store floor for shoppers to explore!

03

FAMILIES SHOP FOR FREE

Survivors in The Archway’s programs can “shop” at Berry Good Buys completely free – getting the essentials they need, and even a few just-for-fun extras. For survivors, this is about rebuilding with dignity.

04

YOU SHOP, SURVIVORS BENEFIT

Every dollar spent in store goes right back into The Archway’s mission to keep families safe and supported through our lifesaving resources.
