Village General Stores in Clear Lake & Fort Dodge

The Village General Stores in Clear Lake and Fort Dodge offer quality used clothing and household goods for sale.  Proceeds from our stores support Village services to people with disabilities.

The stores also accept donations of gently-used or new items.  Donations may be dropped off at either store during store hours (see below).  At the Clear Lake store, donations are only accepted Monday through Saturday, not on Sunday.  Receipts are available at the time of donation for tax purposes.  View a partial list of items we can and cannot accept.
