Minnesota Valley Lutheran High School is blessed to have two resale/thrift stores who support the school and its students. You can support MVL by donating, volunteering, and shopping at Treasure Haus Resale Shop in New Ulm or New 2 You Family Thrift Store in North Mankato.
Treasure Haus
Located at 1700 S Broadway in New Ulm, Treasure Haus is a thrift store that has been supporting MVL since 1985. What began as a small thrift store has grown into a thriving ministry, thanks to God’s blessings and the support of many, amazing volunteers. Guided by the four managers these volunteers help to maintain a clean, welcoming, and well-organized shopping experience. They come from 13 congregations across Southern Minnesota as well as our New Ulm community.
Treasure Haus is grateful to partner with MVL in several meaningful ways. Chiefly, the store is blessed to donate 75% of its profits to MVL’s ministries. We are also blessed to help provide costumes and props for the drama department and supplies for the new Foods class. We reap the benefits of MVL’s dedicated National Honor Society and enjoy student assistance in putting out Christmas decorations every year. Additionally, Treasure Haus offers a student discount with MVL student IDs every Saturday. We are blessed with a close-knit, servant-hearted team that joyfully supports the mission of the Treasure Haus each day. “Serve one another humbly in love.” (Galatians 5:13)
New 2 You
Located at 1838 Commerce Dr in North Mankato, New 2 You Family Thrift Store Inc was started Dec. 31, 2006, to be an additional source of income for MVL. The founders structured the store in such a way that 75% of the net profits would be distributed quarterly to MVL. New 2 You distributes semi-annually 25% of the remaining net profits to the Association churches of:
- Trinity Lutheran Church, Nicollet
- Peace Lutheran Church, North Mankato
- St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, North Mankato
- Mt. Olive Lutheran Church, Mankato
- St. Mark Lutheran Church, Mankato
God has blessed the efforts of all of the work of the people who support The New 2 You Family Thrift Store Inc. The store has two employees who are the manager and assistant manager, and many volunteers who perform various tasks at the store. All of the items sold – which includes furniture, household items, clothing, books, and toys – are donated.
