Good Samaritan Super Thrift Store is a thrift store in Tallahassee, Florida, operating at 2706 N Monroe St. It serves the local community by offering secondhand clothing, household goods, and other donated items for sale, with proceeds supporting the nonprofit Good Samaritan Network. The store supports broader community needs through a daily food pantry and clothing assistance, operating Monday through Saturday with extended hours on weekdays. It is part of a faith-based ministry focused on meeting the physical and spiritual needs of individuals in crisis, particularly those seeking residential support or recovery from hardship.
The Good Samaritan Network, which operates the thrift store, was founded in 2007 by Glenn and Beth Burns with a mission rooted in the parable of the Good Samaritan from Luke 10. The ministry provides residential programs for men and women, including prison re-entry services and support for individuals in crisis. The organization emphasizes spiritual enrichment alongside practical assistance, guided by Christian beliefs. Volunteers and staff, including board members with extensive backgrounds in human services and finance, contribute to the network’s operations and outreach.
The store is located on North Monroe Street in Tallahassee, situated just a short distance from several key institutions. It is about 0.3 miles from the Florida Department of Children and Families, the USGS, ITT Technical Institute, Oxford Preparatory Christian Academy, and Alchemy Climbing, all within a brief walk or drive.
The store is recognized for its consistent community service and faith-driven mission, reflecting the values of compassion, dignity, and practical support. Its presence in the heart of Tallahassee underscores its role in connecting residents with essential resources while advancing a ministry dedicated to healing and renewal.
