Second Chances

Second Chances Second Chances is a free furniture and clothing shop that runs on the generosity of our community. We are a part of the nonprofit, Bridge to Hope. Oswego, NY.

Our current hours are Tuesday to Friday from 1-3 PM, located at 51 E Oneida St. Second Chances Furniture & Clothing is an extension of the ministry, Bridge to Hope. Wade Smith started Bridge to Hope because he felt a call and desire to help men experiencing homelessness find housing, employment, purpose, and value. As Wade continued to grow the ministry, he saw an additional need to serve families

locally. Seconds Chances is a free shop for clothing and furniture, open to anyone in need of resources to help them stabilize and move forward. This is another way for program participants and community volunteers to give back, share what they have and build relationships. Second Chances is not only meeting the physical needs of folks, but is passionate about fostering relationships and bringing hope to one person at a time. If you're interested in volunteering, donating, or have any question or concern, please feel free to message us!

Today, a bunch of our volunteers were certified in the use of Narcan, a medication that reverses opioid overdoses! Although we hope to never have to utilize these skills, we want to be prepared and informed about anything that could help another in need!

If you’re interested in a FREE Narcan training with a kit, please message us 🤗

We are SO excited to welcome back clothing donations!! We ask that you PLEASE be patient with us as we sort through these new, incoming items! We also ask that you please respect our drop-off hours, as we have had many items become ruined overnight sitting outside in the elements!! We are unable to accept donations outside of these hours at this time.

We have a high need for Men's Clothing if you have anything new or gently used lying around that needs a new home!

We love this community! Thank you so much for your continued support & patience!!

As a way to commemorate the month of the floods and the end of school, us volunteers trickled out to Fruit Valley Orchard & Greenhouses to celebrate with a fun bbq!

What started as a seed of an idea to bless few has turned into a tree of fruit & blessings on blessings for many in our community! This store is about more than just clothing… it’s about community & relationship! We love what we do!
