The newest shop on Franklin Avenue is making a huge profit...not a monetary profit…this profit is the result of people acquiring a new outlook on life. This profit results when people in need receive help to help themselves. This profit is made by volunteers who see what happens when they give back to the community. The profits from this shop will continue to grow.
The Professional Outfitters & Variety Shoppe, located at 441 Franklin Avenue, Aliquippa, serves job applicants who need something to wear to an interview as well as providing the general public with quality clothing at a greatly reduced price.

Staffed and run by RSVP (Retired & Senior Volunteer Program) volunteers, the opening of this shoppe has already proven to be the beginning of a great collaboration of agencies working together for the same end result. That result is making a difference in people’s lives. Right now the store is open 10-2 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. As we train more volunteers we hope to be open five days a week with some evening hours.

For more information call the Aliquippa RSVP office at (724)378-7547. If we are not in, leave a message and we will call you back. Call if you need donation drop off instructions, etc., etc. You can also call to volunteer. WE NEED MORE VOLUNTEER WORKERS SO WE CAN INCREASE THE HOURS WE ARE OPEN. You can also Email us at vmcelvy@aaud.org. To view our current price list, click here.
