Recession? No way. Expansion!

Matt Sommer, the guy you see in all those Mission Mart commercials, is our Associate Executive Director, Retail. Here he is completing another happy transaction at our Sterling Avenue store.

Hey! Did you hear that South Side Mission is opening another Mission Mart thrift store? It's true! But don't take our word for it.

Here's the story WEEK News 25 ran about Mission Mart Morton.

And here's what the Morton Times-News had to say about the store.

Mission Mart Morton will open October 1, 2009 in the Field Shopping Center in Morton, 2135 South Main Street.

Mission Mart is a ministry of South Side Mission in which anyone can get low-cost clothing, furniture, housewares, and appliances, sold in a Christian atmosphere and with a smile. All donations stay local. Yearly, Mission Marts provide more than $600,000 in revenue for South Side Mission.
