The Upstairs Closet: Shopping with a Purpose

Welcome to The Upstairs Closet, the heart of the Bermuda Red Cross Thrift Shop. Established in 2011, our shop is more than just a place to find incredible deals—it is a community hub that turns pre-loved fashion into life-saving humanitarian aid.

Every dollar spent at our shop stays right here in Bermuda, directly funding our local disaster relief, equipment rentals, and community health programs.
