upLIFTT Thrift is expanding to Glendive! The store at 206 S. Douglas Street is expected to open in May.
Living Independently for Today & Tomorrow (LIFTT) is proud to announce the opening of a second upLIFTT Thrift Store, coming soon to Glendive, Montana. Located at LIFTT’s newly acquired building at 206 S. Douglas Street, the store is expected to open in May 2026.
This new location marks an important step forward in LIFTT’s commitment to serving communities across Eastern Montana. More than just a retail space, the upLIFTT Thrift Store in Glendive is designed to be a place of access, opportunity, and community connection.
“At LIFTT, we believe that independence is built in everyday ways,” said Carlos Ramalho, Executive Director. “This new store is not only about providing affordable goods. It is about creating a space where people feel welcomed, supported, and empowered in their daily lives.”
The Glendive upLIFTT Thrift Store will offer a wide range of items for individuals and families, including clothing for all ages, new underwear, toys, furniture, seasonal decorations, kitchenware, and other essential home goods. The goal is simple but meaningful: to ensure that community members have access to items that support daily living, comfort, and self-expression. At the same time, the store will serve as an important source of funding for LIFTT’s programs and services, helping sustain initiatives that promote independence and improve quality of life throughout the region.
“This is a community investment,” Ramalho added. “Every item purchased and every donation received helps us continue our work, removing barriers, expanding opportunities, and supporting individuals in living independently.”
LIFTT looks forward to welcoming the Glendive community into the new space and invites residents to visit, donate, and be part of this growing effort. More details about the grand opening will be announced soon.
