4/13/08 (11:24 p.m.) The Clothes Less Traveled Thrift Shop in Peachtree City on Highway 74 South, is a great place to shop and a great place to donate gently used household items, furniture and clothing. Your "treasures" are then sold to the public and all proceeds go to help the less fortunate in the south Atlanta community. President Joan Velsmid recently presented a check for $3,500 to Christian City in support of their ongoing ministry to abandoned and abused children at The Children's Village. Clothes Less Traveled Thrift Shop is open Monday through Saturday from 10am to 5pm.
