Mission Statement
The Interfaith Social Action Council of Sun City Center strives to enhance and improve the lives of the persons and organizations within the South Shore community. The cooperation of six churches and one synagogue, the dedicated Nearly New Volunteers, our caring donors, and our faithful customers, has made funding possible for a wide variety of community service programs and student scholarships. The Interfaith Council and Nearly New Shop have been a force for good in the South Shore area for over 50 years. Our store serves the community as a friendly and welcoming place to shop for bargains and a place to see friends and neighbors.
Description
Interfaith Council operates the Nearly New Shop in the rear the Sun City Center Retail Plaza on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8 am to Noon. In summertime (June-August), the shop is open on Saturday mornings only. High school students frequently volunteer at the shop in addition to community members.
Proceeds are used to support local nonprofit programs such as food banks and emergency assistance programs at St. Vincent de Paul at Prince of Peace (SCC) and St. Anne (Ruskin), Our Lady’s Pantry, Tampa YMCA’s Veggie Van (Wimauma), Andy’s Kitchen, God’s Dogs, Center4Life, SCC Emergency Squad, SCC Security Patrol, SCC Samaritans, Wimauma Boys and Girls Club, and public-school curriculum resources for Summerfield and Collins Elementary Schools.
The Interfaith Council also awards scholarships to dozens of seniors graduating from local high schools who are furthering their education at an accredited college, university or trade school.
