About Second Impressions

Second Impressions is a Christian thrift store serving Fond du Lac and the surrounding communities. We give quality donated items a second life while providing affordable shopping in a clean, welcoming environment.

Our Mission

Second Impressions brings together shoppers, donors, volunteers, and staff in support of a shared purpose. Through the resale of donated clothing, furniture, household goods, books, and other items, we help make quality merchandise affordable while reducing waste through reuse.

Supporting Christian Education

Proceeds from Second Impressions help support Christian education at Winnebago Lutheran Academy, along with other charitable efforts in our community.

Serving Our Community

Volunteers and staff work together to create a friendly Christian atmosphere where people can shop, donate, volunteer, and serve others. We are grateful for the generosity of the Fond du Lac community that makes this ministry possible.

Our Ministry Partners
