Good morning Great Beginnings friends!
Although I've been blessed to have met many of you that follow our page, I know there are so many of you who haven't had the opportunity to visit our boutique just yet. We would still love to share our story with you and encourage you to stop in to shop or maybe even become part of our volunteer team!
Great Beginnings opened our doors in July of 2016 and we have grown significantly since that day with the support of our community. We moved into our current location at 103 N Main (additional entrance at 106 W Central) in December of 2020. We are ran by a volunteer staff of 32 incredible woman!
We are an upscale resale boutique that serves men, woman and children's apparel and accessory needs. All profits directly benefit the Pregnancy and Family Resource Centers and support local families during pregnancy and thereafter.
To introduce myself... I am Christy Stewart, manager at Great Beginnings. I started with the PFRC as a volunteer in March of 2016 and opened the store that July. I am a wife, mom, and entrepreneur as well. I absolutely love and appreciate that I have been able to combine my passion of confidence building fashion, local community service, retail upcycling and serving Christ all in one job, here at Great Beginnings!
In the coming weeks we will be introducing all of our volunteers and their stories so please help me show them love and appreciation for all that they do to make GBB what it is and in turn supporting our great community.
Each time you make a purchase and or donate any additional money, it goes directly to our local Pregnancy and Family Resource Centers. The PRFC provides free parenting resources, free educational classes, free pregnancy tests, free limited ultrasounds, and so much more to women in need in our community. For more information about our local centers visit their page linked above or

Each time you visit Great Beginnings you can save an additional 5% off your purchase by checking in on Facebook. You also have the option to donate any amount small or big directly to the Pregnancy and Family Resource Centers to help those in need within our community.
