Welcome to The Quinn house

The Thrift Store has re-opened for business and Pat and her crew are looking forward to seeing their old friends and meeting new customers. The store was closed for ten months after a devastating fire destroyed everything but the structure. 

For over 30 years we’ve been able to serve the community and those in need  in Lawrenceville and Gwinnett County with, clothes, furniture, household  items and appliances. If you would like to make a donation to The Quinn House, please call our office at (770) 962-0470 to arrange a pick-up. 

I know that no matter what might come our way, our God is able to turn everything around for our good, even after this fire. Thanks for your time, Pat and the staff are looking forward to seeing you all real soon.

Instead of a more traditional program that treats addiction as a disease, we  adhere to the belief that addiction is a choice-based disorder.  In other words, if you continually make the same choices, they eventually become part of your automatic or habitual behavior. The key word here is choice. Webster defines “choice” as the act of selecting; the power of choosing or that you have options. We can’t deny that alcohol and drugs affect the mind, body, and spirit. Once addicted you must address all three. 

After 30 years of serving our neighbors in Gwinnett County from South Perry  St, The Quinn House has moved to a new facility. Don't worry we are only  2 miles down the road. We moved to a less congested area of Lawrenceville that will afford our customers and donors  better service, easier in and out access by car, and off-road parking, as an added plus  there will be no stairs to climb anymore. The new facility is located at 555 Hurricane Shoals Rd NW in Lawrenceville. 

This location will now house all of the services that were at our 120 South Perry St. facility. Food Box pick-up, donation  drop-off and the business office will be located at 555 Hurricane Shoals Rd. (NW) 120 South Perry location is now closed. Please do not leave donations at the 120 S Perry St address as we no longer own that property.

We look forward to serving our friends and neighbors for the next 30 years.

If you have any questions or concerns please contact our office at (770) 962-0470.

I recently had a discussion with one of our past guests. We talked about how his life had turned around since he left the Quinn House and the role we had played in his new found success. I was quite taken by the excitement in his voice, as he explained the difference in his new attitude. He stated that he had received more than just a second chance.  

He had been through treatment before, believing that was enough, but now he realized the need to focus and implement the principles he had  learned. He said that this time he truly understands what recovery is all about. He has changed the way he thinks, feels and responds to things and has put his life's priorities in order. “Life” he said, “is Difficult, but Life is Good”

If any individuals or organizations are looking for ways to help The  Quinn House, we can offer a suggestion. We are in the beginning of the yearly summer canned vegetables and fruit drought. If any Individuals, families, or your organization would like to donate canned goods or arrange a canned food drive for your neighbor’s benefit it would be very  helpful. As always, we are thankful for the communities support in our  mission of helping those in need.

We  are so thankful for the great people at Associated Credit Union, due to the unfortunate state of the economy and rising costs, we have struggled to fully fund many of our outreach programs.
